So I think my 10+ might be developing the LTE issue, 3 bars of B26 nothing is loading, really hope this is just a tower issue and not my phone don't wanna start over again.
Or B26 is congested since it's likely not aggregated with another band

Having major issues today can't hardly stay connected to LTE I'm sitting on 3G currently, it's either bad service because of the storm last night but I doubt it as I traveled some 20 miles and had the same problems. Thought I was immune to this issue but I think it's creeping up on me. I was told my voicemail wasn't working this morning from my boss so I don't know what's going on but my phone is crucial for work and this is getting irritating.

Have you called sprint to see if there are network issues in your area?? 

The LTE issue doesn't kick you to 3G, it keeps you on a dead LTE signal, so I think you've got tower/network issues vs. the LTE modem burn up.

I've been getting dead LTE too where no data works but it shows I am connected with full bars, this doesn't happen all the time but often enough.

 

So I contacted Sprint, no known issues in my area. I've done every diagnostic step too, might have to warranty this thing with asurion. Luckily they don't charge a fee with the S10 because of this issue.

Yep definitely have the LTE modem issue, disabled B41 and B25 and the phone is working albeit very slow but guess I need to contact asurion... This blows $1,000 paperweight.
OR executive services, they mailed me a new unit, after all trouble shooting.

How do I do that? This really sucks.
I usually tweet this group:

.@marceloclaure .@SprintCTO .@sprintcare .@MichelCombes

Get a message, ask for a DM and request a call from executive services. Tell them all the steps you've done and respectfully request a replacement device. Tell them you don't want to go to anymore stores or waste your time.

Just do a phone swap for a new unit to get a working device!

Then once you get swapped, request a credit for all your wasted time, dropped calls and data.

I received a $140 credit and a friend got $150+.

Good luck and hopefully they'll take care of you.

This phone is exhibiting so many weird things on LTE atm, I'm starting to think it's not the phone as it is my nearby tower at work. They said there were no tower issues but I suspect that there are, once I get a good mile from work things start to go back to normal. Still going to keep an eye on this, we did have some pretty bad storms the last few nights so perhaps something just isn't right. No one got back to me on twitter either so whatever for now.

Phone is totally screwed, still no action from Twitter. If it wasn't for my magic box at home and WiFi wherever I go I'd be totally screwed. What a shit weekend, I hold in my hands a paperweight. The one update was supposed to prevent this but nope.

Since the update have you tried ##786# and see if that worked?

I've tried it all, I finally got a hold of executive services and they're sending me a new phone. Should have it by Tuesday, plus I got a $70 bill credit so I'm happy. Just hope I can stand a few more days of this brick lol.

Yeah it was a quick process, literally a 10 minute phone call and a new phone is on it's way no dealing with asurion and a re-manufactured phone.

    • 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....
