800 is live and has been for a while without issue.

Well I'm stumped then. You could trying calling and opening a ticket, it could just be a screwed up tower.

I was having issues no matter the location.  I know it's not the tower because my mom has a Nexus 5 as well with no issues.

What happens when you're on LTE and somebody tries calling you?

Are you on the L preview with the older radio? Or were you just running the L radio?

I was on the L preview but I reverted back to PA (I dev for PA).  Left the L radio in place because I wasn't having issues. I'm now on the 4.4.4 radio.

 

Time to call Google for a replacement. Any chance you have a backup of your EFS partition that you can restore?

 

No backup unfortunately.  It was accidentially wiped because I forgot to remove the -w flag when flashing the L factory image.  I'm hesitant to get a replacement because I have recovered from this issue in the past.

Honestly, I'd try flashing the 4.4.4 factory image. It might be something leftover from the L preview dicking things up.

I'd second koji. Wipe everything in recovery. And do a fresh install

I think you need a replacement

No problem, its good to learn this before I go flashing L to test it out. Headaches are better when they're outsourced;).

I don't think L was at fault in this case. Probably a result of me forgetting to wipe some stuff when I flashed a test build for PA

Can someone tell me why Google now 3.5 is not doing the any screen feature? Its the new version of Google now but the setting for any screen is absent. 1080p YouTube is unavailable too but my G2 has both of these features.

Its being rolled out in batches and its not just the software version.

 

Update: Speak of the Devil! I got the update for the voice from any screen, Now I can do it from literally any screen, even works while playing music or video.

 

Man, Google is unstoppable!

If you do have the newest Google now version try holding your finger down on any home screen, go to settings, then voice,  then "Ok Google" Detection, and see if there is an option to check "From any screen".

Never mind. Sorry didn't see the part where you specifically said it wasn't there. My bad..

Back at my parent's house in Los Angeles, looks like the new 4.4.4 radio let's me stay on B41 much longer than the 4.4.3 radio. I was only getting B41 here with the .15 radio before, but it looks like I was getting it downstairs in the dining room too with the new radio and I usually switch to 3g down there. I'm liking 4.4.4 even more now.

Hush! Do not say that. The naysayers know that band 41 cannot penetrate a paper bag.

That isn't even the magical 8T8R radio at work, most likely. No magic beamforming either. :)

Inside my apartment I get a weak fringe signal that always kept me on 3G with a -104dbm signal, but with this new 4.4.4 radio my N5 is camping on B41 ranging from -118dBm to -131dBm. I didn't think B41 could penetrate like that.

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.
    • 5G in the U.S. – Additional Mid-band Spectrum Driving Performance Gains T-Mobile holds on to it's lead in 5G Speed
    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
