Is anyone experiencing LTE problems? I have great Spark signal in my area, but this phone seems to go to 3g all the time. My other phones are always on LTE, so obviously coverage is not the issue here. I will unroot thru Odin and see if it's a root problem.

Not a root problem. Weird part is it only seems to happen to me in areas where there is really strong 4g, like in my house. At work, I am on a weaker 4g signal all day long without issues.
Try updating your profile and prl. Also make sure you have CDMA/LTE selected under mobile network.

I have the same problem. It keeps dropping my signal to 3g..even when it's on 3g sometimes it loses the 3g signal and reconnects to 3g.. the areas I go always have band 41 ...my previous phone was the nexus 5 and the signal was great...never drops connection like this...I thought it was only my phone as I haven't seen someone with the same problem in the forums. I'm in nyc area
Hopefully there is fix soon, it's very annoying to have this data issues.
Its not just your phone mine does the same thing at my work. I switch between multiple different band 25 26 and 41 towers as well as 3G towers. It occurs while the phone just sits on my desk. Theres a couple other threads discussing this. To my knowledge no one has any usable suggestions to help with this.

My Note 4 does the exact same thing. I'm in a fully covered spark area, my old s4 always connected to lte with about 10 meg download. Awesome data offensive note 4 gets 3 to 5 meg download.. sometimes only getting 0.01 upload speed. That's the only thing that consistently bothers me about this phone. Oh yea it also constantly drops lte... to 3g. Feels like it's data is going through a dial up modem. I'm going to check the Sprint forums and see if I can find any good info.
Happened once in one place i was. Lower LTE signal and the phone kept dropping it and falling back to 3g, while my gf Lg G2 kept the LTE connection. I'm thinking they need to tweak the radio software in a future update.

I've noticed that all the TriBand devices (Anything with Spark) switch to 3G for a bit then connect back to LTE/Spark. I haven't heard anything from work about this issue yet. I've also noticed its areas that have low Spark signal and high LTE signal.
My guess is it's a handoff problem. I will see all bars but LTE grayed out while riding the metro.
There is another thread touching on this too....I am having terrible LTE connection. My wife, who is an iPhone 6 user, gets 4 bars (or circles? lol) of LTE while I can sit next to her with 0-1 bars LTE or 3 bars 3G. I love this phone too much to complain alot about this but I am confident Sprint/Samsung will release an update to fix this.
The exact same problem occurred when the LG G2 got the spark update. It took 8 months for sprint to issues update that was specific to the LTE problem. I had to factory wipe before and after the update to get it to stick. The only difference is before the G2 was updated a toggle to airplane mode would bring the LTE back. That trick does not work on this phone. I will also add I drive alot at my job 6 hours plus a day. I go to the same spots to do paperwork in my truck. My Note 4 will not stay on LTE/Spark in locations where my G2 had a constant 10-15mbps connection.

I work in downtown Houston and, while I am always connected to either 3G or 4G, I consistently have terrible phone signal. It'll only ever range from zero to 3 bars and I don't even think I've seen a full signal since I've owned this phone. Now, this isn't too much of a deal as I can always text and make calls (although it takes a while to connect sometimes.), but I'm left wondering if this is a cell tower issue or if something may have updated incorrectly. I'm rooted and unlocked and have only ever flashed the last 6 or so Lifeless ROM updates, so I don't really think I could have messed it up myself, but I find it hard to believe that downtown Houston would have such bad phone signal. Any insight?

I work in Downtown Denver and have a very similar problem downtown, but not out in the suburbs. My Sprint store has given me a couple of explanations.
1) The buildings block the signal. There are areas of downtown, particularly by the tallest buildings, where occasionally I will drop my cell signal completely
2) In a higher concentration area signal is reduced due to more people using that signal (I don't understand how this one affects signal strength, but that's what I was told)
How is your signal outside of the downtown area? Did you update Profile and PRL after flashing? Ever dropped the phone?

Well, I live about 14 miles west of downtown, and even there, I don't get full strength signal. As I said, I don't ever remember seeing more than 3 bars of signal. I update the PRL and Profile after every flash, and just today I dialled ##72786# to see if the hands free activation would do anything but no luck. I've also encountered moments where I'll be at home (again, I normally have data coverage and a few signal bars) and suddenly, I'll get an alert notifying me that I'm roaming.

That happened to me the other day. I was at work and I got roaming pop up. Really weird since that never happened before and because my 4G is so strong. 36168kbps Down and 6304kbps up.

This has been an issue on every LG Sprint phone with Android I have used. I am not sure what causes it but the bars on the screen never show full strength. That doesn't mean it isn't working though. I have heard it is just how LG worked the rom to show signal.

Let me first start off by saying this is the furthest from the truth. If it shows a weak signal its because this phone has a weak signal.
This is my 3rd day with this phone and as much as I raved about it on a couple of threads, weak signal is definitely one of the negatives.

Dude the LTE radio has nothing to do with the phone signal. Two separate radios.
This phone just has weak radios. Now the question is, is it a software or hardware issue? my bet is software but then again I'm not an engineer
Edit
Funny thing is open signal maps gives me an 85dbm reading yet in settings it shows 94 dbm

I don't have an issue with 3g I get great 3g signal my issue is with lte. Lte has bed in my area since late August early September and I've had the s3 evo lte and the iPhone none of them have had an issue picking up or holding lte the lgog does.and I think it all boils down to the phone not recognizing the correct signal and thinking its weaker than it truly is. In my house and through my town I would never drop lte On the others this phone barely holds it. I've been 100 yards from a cell tower and the phone won't go below 84dbm when I know the signal strength is stronger
I installed the Network Signal Info app on several phones in my store and the LGOG registered about 9db worse consistently compared to the SGS3 or Evo LTE
About the same thing I've seen with this phone I'm hoping its a quick fix for lg with the next update. I was really hoping that zv9 would come with a new radio

It happens to me once in awhile. I will connect to the LTE network but no data. After a min or two it switches back to 3G. The LTE networks are up around me, but I don't think the upgrade is 100% complete. I'm thinking its a Sprint issue.

From the sounds of it, Sprint is adding 4g to your area. They generally start out in the rural areas and make their way inward. You could be on the boundary and we'll continue to get intermittent signals until the get enough work done to get s stronger signal. Hang in there, it gets better.

Hey guys,
I was just told that tmobile has launched lte in our area, Dallas tx(not sure). At the time I was trying to flash the latest custom roms, I got a problem.
My case is on modem UVBMD1 rom Jedi x14, I have 4g 15mps down and 3mps up, but only 2 bar signal
Modem UVBMD1 rom Jedi master 14, I have 4glte 22mps down and 3mps up, still 2 bar signal
Modem UVBMD1 rom original odexed-rooted, I have 4g 8mps down and 1mps up, full bar signal.
I do not understand why it has so many different speeds on the same modem and same android 4.1.2. Still not sure if anyone in Dallas has real LTE already.
Thanks guys.
Update,
Trying several different setting, realized that when the network option set to automatic 2g/3g/4g, it has full bar signal and 8mps down. When it was set to automatic 2g/3G/4g/lte, it has only two bars and 23mps down. Does it mean there is something wrong with the modem?

Im in Dallas, Have a Nexus 4, Note 2, HTC One.
I can tell you that on my stock Note 2 LTE will give me a solid connection but a low signal strength indication. So 1-3 bars. But i can still pull down 20-30 megs down. Since im on stock its 4G LTE icon and not just 4G.
When your getting the full bars at 8 megs your on the HSDPA+ network. When your getting 23 down with 1-2 bars your on LTE.
Id suggest getting the app SignalCheck Pro.

I guess tmobile should release a new version of modem to fix this problem. So sad that you have the same issue. But still enjoy the 22mps down. Thanks dude.
I think we can all expect signal-strength fluctuations, changing availability in types of service, and general wonkiness for at least the next month or so while TM finishes rolling out LTE in the various markets. It's not like they just flip the switch and it's all set - they have to test and tweak.

Software updates take time.
Problems have to be reported by the masses, then the manufacturer has to try to fix, then it goes to the carrier for approval and small groups of beta testers, then out to the masses.
The good news is, with small system updates like radio firmware, modems and stuff, those do push out much faster then major updates. BUT sometimes they want to put them in with major updates.

Tweaks, init.d mods, etc.... also varies from interference, congestion. Not sure what your entire claim is that tmobile needs to fix but its seems to make little sense as there is no REAL issue just different speeds based on tests that have multiple variables.
Im in Dallas, as i stated in my other post. Ive been getting solid LTE at Home, Old East Dallas and at work. NE Dallas near NW HWY and Skillman.
Ive had solid LTE since they flipped the switch the night of the 16th of June.
Thats on my Note 2, Nexus 4, HTC One.
I have also driven thru parts of Dallas that still give me 4G which is HSDPA+. While they are still working on it i can tell you from first hand experience this is going way better then the Sprint roll out of LTE. I was with Sprint for 11 years and left them in January for T-Mobile. What a nightmare that was.
Anyway, to answer your question about LTE in Dallas its a Yes for me.
I'm in Columbus Ohio and I had to remove the automatic lte/4g/3g/e they seem to be testing lte here. When data is accessed it works breiefly then drops all the way down to no signal. ...then sits at E...then to 4G...then if I don't use my phone....it goes up.....to lte...so I just removed it from searching for lte....now my 4g speed is consistant...until lte is stagnant stable and live...im good

Hey everyone!
I have a stock M8 with T-Mobile and I live in LA. I'm new to T-Mobile so I wanted to ask if this is normal.
My phone will lose data connectivity but the 4G LTE sign will stay on. Spotify will stop playing, Speedtest won't work, but the phone keeps telling me I have 4G LTE.
This happens a lot especially when driving, but today it happened while I was in the drive-through of a fast food place. I had barely moved and yet data was working fine at first, then suddenly "poof" nothing works anymore cause no internet, but the phone insists I have 4G LTE.
Usually turning data off and then on fixes it but not always.
Could it be an issue of switching towers? But then wouldn't my signal drop completely? Why does only data stop?
Anyone else having this issue or do I have a lemon phone I should return?
if you are jumping from tower to tower it may not relay properly. Call tmo and tell them to do a signal refresh. call from a different phone.
Do you have power saving mode on? The reason I ask this is bc it will turn your data connection off when your screen locks.

Same here ,
Ever since I bought the m8 it happens to me time to time.
Ive tried dis n reconnect the mobile data or go on airplain mode, but sometimes reboot is quicker.
Hope HTC publish a bug fixed firmware soon
Its a provisioning issue on the towers people you need to call tmo...
This was happening all the time to me on my Note 3 which Is why I upgraded to the M8. Just got it last night and it's happened once. Also, the signal isn't as strong. My Note would hold a lte connection with barely 1 bar. The m8 not so much. Likes to switch between 2g, 4g and lte.

It was fine for a couple of days. Today however I had to wait in the car for 1.5 hours for something and was playing Spotify.
Didn't move for that entire period. For an hour it worked fine, then suddenly it did this again where it wasn't receiving data and yet the 4G LTE sign was on screen.
So I guess it didn't really help. I turned data off and on and it restored it, but still... that's not cool.

Yeah same here. It happens in my house when I'm using my phone in bed and just loses data but it still says LTE and have to either turn off and on data or reset my phone.
Also on my way to work today I was using Spotify the entire drive, which is about 45 minutes, and never lost data but on the way back it lost it about twice. It sucks and hopefully there's a fix of some sort.

I have had my M8 for a week and have not experienced any issue with data loss. I am in Miami, Fl. If anything I get way better LTE speeds than I have had with any of my last phones( S4, G2, Iphone 5S)
Same issue with my M8.
Full bars LTE signal and sometimes data just stops working. Need to reboot the phone to get it working again. Was thinking about exchanging the phone but it seems like a software glitch...

I don't have this issue but I do have terrible speeds in south Atlanta.
3-5 bars in my home, and download speeds are from 3-6 Mbps down and uplad from 2-3Mbps up even with LTE. I get much better performance on HSPA+
LTE pings are half that of HSPA though
Just to add on here, in my experience this has more to do with the area and likely the towers supporting that area then software or hardware. Another possibility is T Mobile's network in LA is not 100% compatible with HTC is new radio firmware yet. If that's the case some tweaking by t-mobile on the backend would fix this issue straight away.
The reason I say this is because in Las Vegas, Nevada I never have any problem with LTE losing connection, however, this last week I was in Long Beach, CA (LA County) and constantly had loss of data connection while the phone would still displaying a full 5 bar 4G LTE connection.
Reboot or switching to airplane mode would fix it, however, it got to be so bad and happened so regularly, I eventually stopped using LTE entirely while there. The HSPA+ "4G" connection there was still producing around 10 megabits per second download which was more than enough. So, while there I switched off LTE and had no more issues with data connection dropping.
Long story short clearly seems to be an issue with T Mobile Lte Towers in the greater Los Angeles area. Possibly its an issue in other areas as well.

Happening here in South Houston too, but i am using a VZW M8 with Tmo.
I also have this issue, but I'm on AT&T and missing some bands that I need, so I was figuring it was that.

Has anyone found a solution to this problem yet? My HTC One M8 has been losing data connectivity ever since I purchased it last month. It will say I have 4G LTE but I will loose data connection regardless. It's a nuisance. I never had that problem with the M7. My camera on the M7 got a purple haze so T-Mobile replaced it with a refurbished M7. It was the worst thing I could've done. The refurbished M7 would freeze and reboot a lot, until it finally got stuck in a boot loop and I lost all my photos, videos, and files. Would not go into recovery. Then T-Mobile sent me a plastic Samsung S4 as a replacement for that because they were out of the M7. The new M8 has been working pretty well except for the annoying data connection loss everyday. I have to activate then deactivate airplane mode to obtain data connection again. Only other time I ever had this happen was with a certain nighyly rom I put on my HTC HD2, but that was rooted, this is a stock phone, I never expected to have a data connection problem with a stock rom.
I had this problem for ages with straight talk with my old phone just before I bought my M8. Exactly the same issue in that my data would seemingly just cut out randomly after a bit then come back later(switching off/on and/or in and out of airplane would restore it).
In my case, it turned out to be my data settings. I played around with different settings one night and found that different settings finally got rid of the problem for me. Your mileage may vary, but it's an easy enough thing to try.
Anyone else on the ATT G4 having problems with LTE connectivity? In areas where I'd usually get 5 bars of LTE service, a majority of the time I get 2 or 3 bars of Edge service. Putting it into airplane mode and back out doesn't help, turning mobile data on and off doesn't help, and neither does removing the SIM card (and reseting the phone in the process). It seems to come and go whenever it wants to.

All I can guess is, it's probably just the ATT network itself. They did some upgrades around here a while once Cspire started hyping their fiber optic network and I noticed on my older phone that in areas where I used to get 3G I was stuck getting edge. Even with my G4 I can park in perfect view of a known ATT tower and it'll hit 4G and within a minute be down to 3G - same with strength. Get 5 bars, don't move, no data, no call, and it'll drop down to no bars but still connected and bounce around, usually settling at 2 or 3. Even though ATT says they have full LTE out here I rarely actually see the LTE logo display in the status bar.
I've been using OpenSignal to try to map out coverage areas though, been pretty handy in finding towers and chasing stronger signal
