Google Nexus 5 by LG Users Thread!

So basically the .15 radio removes the feature that kicks the phone down to 3G when the LTE site can't setup the 1x tunnel?

yes, pretty much the only downfall I found. Your phone would sit there connected to lte but unable to receive calls and texts.

 

Edit: the band 41 goodness is worth the risk. I've only encountered that issue with one tower

It does like to connect to donut sites...and those donut sites for me are having ecsfb issues as well. Hmm I think Ericsson has a reason for donut sites

Donuts are simply LTE sites with the authorization path for all devices turned off, that has nothing to do with CSFB.  There's usually an issue that needs correcting or an employee/crew that needs firing.

Maybe those are the sites I'm running into when I try the prl trick for b41 connectivity

You need a good donor site to hand you off into a donut site. Then you have to hold a constant data connection otherwise it kicks you off. A ping session works great.

So I finally unlocked and rooted the phone. I was able to back up all my app data and restore it to the way it was before hand (extremely handy since I hate setting up new phones from scratch)

 

So far, I flashed over the Dalvik and Bionic optimizations and installed Xposed Framework. I'll post an update later or some time tomorrow to see if it helps with any overall improvement.

P.S. If I had known how painless and easy it was to root a Nexus device I would be doing it in my sleep. So happy, there are one click methods

That was too close. Got a wild hair after lunch went to Play. Google. Com and was going to fill in CC info and hit buy but its slipped to shipping in 2 weeks verses 1-2 days. I guess I was ment to wait and see S5 official specs before I pull the trigger.

So I got my Nexus today, I am noticing it is connecting EV-DO and not the eHRPD. Cycling does not seem to change it. my EVO still Shows eHRPD

You have not enabled LTE in settings, or you have a SIM card authentication issue.  Those are the two most likely explanations.

Old news.. this rumor has popped up several times over the past couple of years. Several sites "confirmed" that the Nexus 4 would be the final one, including the same Russian blogger that this article is sourcing. Guess they pulled a TV weatherman on that one..
