Just picked up an LG G2 today and lo and behold it's having the same exact problems with LTE in certain areas. Definitely a Tri Band device problem. Now to compare and contrast the two. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I toggled airplane mode here at work with the LTE engineering screen open to see if I saw anything weird. It showed that it briefly connected to B25 then dropped back to eHRPD. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

My theory on why the device won't connect to LTE in addition to possibly having to do with being in a B41 area: The device might be scanning on all 3 bands even when B25 is the only one enabled. When it sees B41 it freaks out. Possibly due to bad programming or possibly because it's trying to authenticate but the network is blocking the connection. Which may explain why it connects so briefly when cycling airplane mode. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Anyone who is experiencing LTE connection difficulties in a live B41 area? My LTE connects fine again at home. For those of you that are unaware, when I was at work tonight I had no LTE connection at all. Usually I have at least B25. The whole way back home there was nothing until I got on my exit. Then boom there it was. It stayed connected during the 20 min drive from there to home. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The interesting thing is my device doesn't have an issue handing off from LTE tower to LTE tower south of Tacoma, WA. While traveling in my home area my device will connect to LTE to LTE or LTE to 3G back to LTE just fine. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I'm at work at the moment which has B41 and B25 LTE. What's interesting is that my device isn't connected to either. It's on eHRPD. On the way to work it would not connect to LTE after a few miles on the freeway. I can hypothesize that when this device is in a B41 area it will not connect to LTE on any band. I will see if it connects when I get back home. Toggling airplane mode allows LTE to show briefly, then it falls back onto eHRPD. Any ideas on what to try? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I'm going to work later today which is in an area confirmed to have B41 active. I'll definitely let you guys know if it connects! Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I have problems. It certainly has its benefits though. For example, I am pretty good at answering obscure questions about devices at work because I have had every flagship device sold at Sprint. Annnnd that's probably the only other benefit of such behavior... I spend way too much money on these things... Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

In the past 12 months I've owned an iPhone 5, Nexus 4, Galaxy Note 2, Optimus G, HTC One (White Black and Red), GS4, BB Q10, Moto X, Galaxy Note 3 and now this Nexus 5. I feel your pain. Haha. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I thought I was just going crazy. I definitely noticed a big improvement as well. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I see. I am in a Samsung market so I suppose that could very well be the problem. I wonder what's causing these devices to have a hard time authenticating LTE on Alcatel Lucent... Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I'm not having any issue with LTE. Are those of you who are experiencing problems enabling Band 26 and setting the Band Priority differently? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I agree with you on the volume side of things. I do, however, find the audio quality to be quite nice! Audio is punchier than the Note 3 and Nexus 4. Not overly bright and doesn't sound tinny. It's just a little more quiet than I would want. Overall I am very satisfied with this device, and for the price I can not argue the immense amount of value it brings.

SCRTNs are performed on Nexus devices by entering " *#*#72786#*#* " in the dialer. That is usually reserved for troubleshooting network related issues. It basically forces your phone to forget your phone number and activation profile, thus causing your phone to reactivate. If your problem is indeed Google Voice integration related, an SCRTN is unlikely going to solve it. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Settings>More>Mobile Networks>Carrier Settings>Update Profile and PRL If that doesn't solve the problem it might have something to do with Hangouts or Google Voice integration having a conflict. Perhaps a reboot or SCRTN would help. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Pardon my ignorance, how can I check for what you're looking for on the Nexus 5? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
-
I can't confirm that it will pick up B41 just yet because I don't work for another 2 days. We have B41 there as is confirmed by the Zing hotspot we use as WiFi. What I can confirm at the moment is that enabling B41 on the device isn't having an adverse effect on how this device switches between B25 and eHRPD or 1XRTT I will keep you guys posted with engineering screens once/if I knowingly connect to B41 LTE Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

So far after enabling Band 41 I haven't had issues with the device connecting back and forth to Band 25 and eHRPD. I didn't enable Band 26. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Just enabled Band 41 on my device. Will test it when I get to work which is in a Clear LTE area. Anyone have any success with manually enabling Band 41? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Activated my 32GB Nexus. Had to call customer care to activate it. Data works but whenever I try to make a call it keeps saying "Error 16" lol Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

What's the significance of GCI and PCI? Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

I get my 32GB Nexus in tomorrow. If no one else posts their experiences with theirs by then I'll let you know what happens. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

I'm pretty stoked to get mine. I ordered mine yesterday when it said "Nov 8th" and it has yet to ship. I'm just happy to have a Nexus again and Tri Band support is just icing on the cake. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk

If you're referring to SIM cards they ring out for free in RMS Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
