Count me as another Best Buy Mobile success story.  I went in with the UPC for the correct UICC/CSIM for the 2015 Moto X.  Less than five minutes and $10 later, I walked out with the right 4FF nano SI

So I went back to the well of the @marceloclaure twitter account to try to get answers on why carrier aggregation is not working on the MXPE.  The first response I got was "The device doesn't have the built in antennas for band 41."   That was roughly the response I expected, so I sent back a message from the FCC docs regarding the certification for B41 CA and B41 support in general.  Not sure I'll get anywhere, but might end up with something new...

 

Also, I was on the Wall article from last summer about this device and I notice that there is now a bold red line that the B41 CA may not work with the MXPE.  I have no clue when that was added or who added it.  There is no information in the comments or anything I could find in this thread.  Any idea who or when that was added and why?

I gave up after talking to ALL the companies having to do with this issue.

Not at all. Even Qualcomm said the device is capable but just not enabled.

So who enables it, Motorola with a firmware/radio update or Sprint with a network update?

Motorola should via an update. So you ask them, and they don't have a "timeframe" at this time.

Hello everyone. I just picked up my new Moto X Pure on Friday and I am enjoying it very much (expect for the fact that I need a new SIM card so technically its not in service yet). I came from an old Samsung Note and decided to go with this phone after a lot of compliments and good reviews. While searching through S4GRU I found this thread... I haven't read through the posts yet but I hope there is some real world reviews and good stuff about this phone. :D

Ca doesn't work on att either. Seems most carriers are taking this action against non branded devices. Volte is the other target.

 

FYI 6.0.1 for 1572 is rolling out now. I'm running it and it is much smoother then 6.0 so something to look forward to.

Did you an update notification? I got a security patch update a few days ago but not 6.0.1

Hey everyone. I'm traveling in Canada and can't get any GSM data to work with the Moto x pure. I have Sprint open world so it should be working. Voice and text work, but nada on data. Network is set to global, and I've updated profile.

 

Any suggestions ?

You'll need to contact sprint international support. Usually it'd account settings that they mess with.

I called them.. They can't figure it out. What's weird the Moto x has no screen for APN settings and things like that. I think sprint just has their setup wrong for this phone. It also became obvious that they are not as good supporting phones they don't sell.

Wireless operators are never as good at supporting devices that they do not sell.

 

They are not obligated to do so.  And do not expect otherwise.  That just is the reality of the current situation.

Under one of the standard user facing (not hidden) data settings menus on the handset, be sure that international data roaming is toggled on.

 

My experience with at least one other handset when traveling to Canada a few years ago is that the international data roaming setting is toggled off by default.  Even though I had paid for a Canada/Mexico data roaming allotment, I was puzzled why I had no data when I crossed the border.  Well, I had no data until I went into the settings and toggled on international data roaming.

 

My Sprint postpaid SIM currently is in my Nexus 5X, my AT&T prepaid SIM in my 2015 Moto X.  Otherwise, I would check out the data roaming settings myself.  Maybe the international data roaming toggle is missing.  The Nexus 5X has only one data roaming toggle -- all or nothing for both domestic and international data roaming.  Or the Nexus 5X could have trouble in Canada, too.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
