We have heard other complaints happening in other markets too occasionally.  It seems that eCSFB on Samsung still has some growing pains where it goes in and out.  

 

One way to confirm is to put your device in LTE Only mode when you are in an area where you know you should be getting LTE.  If you find LTE in LTE Only mode, then there is definitely a CSFB issue going on.  If you don't get LTE in LTE Only mode either, then there is another problem.  Perhaps even the site is completely down.

After doing changing the phone setting to LTE Only and seeing the phone pick and stay on LTE, I realized it is just the CFSB.

I'll test that out. Thanks!

My issues with CSFB is that my phone didn't start having issues until about 2-3 weeks ago. Well after my 14 day trial period which was back in November. I had major issues with my previous phone on Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2. I stuck with Sprint hoping things would get better. So far it's been pretty good. However if the CSFB issues don't subside by this spring or summer, I'm not going to be happy with Sprint. 

I have the Nexus 5 and have had weird issues lately. I'm in South Jordan, Utah (South Salt Lake Valley) and my phone is constantly switching to 3G and also going to the Global carrier setting. I've been getting LTE just fine and now I have to change some settings to get it to go back. Sometimes even update the Profile and PRL. Salt Lake has been announced by Sprint as getting LTE but might still be having some growing pains. Could any of my problems be attributed to CSFB or other LTE site issues, or would it only be my phone?

How can the bands be played with on the Nexus 5? I just got it and I'm still trying to figure it out. 

This may be a stupid question but is there a way to manually disable two of the bands on the triband phones to pick up the signal better while waiting for things to get resolved, or is it just a waiting game?
