Hi Guys,
So, I've been using the GNex for about a month. I moved to this phone from a Moto Atrix and here is what I have noticed and have looked around but didn't see any good answers to these questions I am having. Hopefully I get some answers here.
Device info:
GNex GSM version on ATT.
Running JB 4.1.1 Stock with Trinity Kernel (rooted and bootloader unlocked).
Issue #1: I get really bad reception at work. But, when I leave the building, my phone doesn't automaticaly connect back to the network. Sometimes, if I don't check my phone, it's been like that all night long until the next day when I have tried to make a call and it said "No Network Available" and I have to either reboot or toggle airplane mode to get back on the network. Am I missing something? In my past experience with other devices, they try to automatically connect back to the network when they loose connectivity. Also, if I get in an elevator during a call and the call gets dropped due to network unavailability, it doesn't connect back to the network and I have to toggle airplane mode. Has anyone else had this issue?
Issue#2: This is with the stock mail app. Specifically the search in this mail app. No matter what, it always returns zero results. Has anyone had this issue with the Mail App? If I use the Gmail app, it works fine. That's what I am using now, but am curious as to what I may be missing that make it not return any search results in the stock mail app.
Q3: Speed Dial: How do you set speed dial on the dialer? Is it even supported?
thanks in advance,
vG

it could be to do with your radio, what version is it? baseband version in about phone. im no expert but when i flashed a jellybean rom i had to update my radio afterwards cause my signal was dropping alot. i also had the same problem later on but that was down to my network operator. before i realised it was them i googled my problem and a few forums suggested that my sim card was goosed. so maybe check those three possibilities? i cant help with the other two issues unfortunately but good luck sorting it out!

So periodically my phone is active and working... all of a sudden i have full strength in bars but I can not transmit a call, recieve a call or use data and anyone calling will automatically goto voicemail. I'm beyond mind boggled what in the world is happening.
Im using wind mobile as my phone carrier and using UKID as the baseband.
Would appreciate any help or support.
same thing is happening to my phone.
I can not transmit a call, recieve a call (some times)
Im using 2.3.6 official rom.
Anyone know anything about
it was once happened to me as well. That was because of poor reception area. What I did was to manually search and select the network provider instead of automatic selection, this pretty much solved my issue in that area. Give it a go and share your result. Also restart your phone once before doing this.
Very odd.
Tried the above and still facing the same issue.
Pulled battery and sim card to be safe for a minute. turn on phone and went and did manual search. will have running service for about 5 minutes or so and the poof... doesnt exist.

I have middle signal strength -89dbm
I've got a strange problem that I cannot solve or find anyone else that has had the same problem.
I recently updated to Minco V4 and since my status bar has been showing no signal and mobile standby shows 100% without signal yet I have mobile data. I cannot make any phone calls but can browse the internet. No amount of rebooting, airplane mode on/off will work. I've also gone back to both stock ICS and JB where the problem still exists.
My network is T-Mobile and it won't let me manually connect to it but the phone will occasionally register when I select automatic although it doesn't correct the fault. Anyone have any ideas what has gone wrong with my phone?
UPDATE: It seems I can only get a phone signal when select 2g T-mobile network only or connecting to T-Mobile orange. If I untick 2g networks and it connects to t-mobile 3g I can't receive or make calls.
Does your Radio and baseband match?
I installed the linked radio from the MiNCO thread after flashing the rom and discovering this issue yet it made no difference.
I got a phone signal momentarily about 15 mins ago which allowed me to make a short phone call to test it. I then accepted the JB system update from Google and now have no phone signal, just data.
Hello everyone, I've been lurking here all weekend as I've been trying to stabalize this phone I bought off of Kijiji. Right off the bat, when I
installed the sim I forgot to turn off the phone . Haha, I was extremely tired & only when I removed the battery (of course) did I realize what
had happened. Ever since the sim has been in, the signal has been unstable every 5-10-15 to 30 minutes (this is without running POGO). By
unstable, I mean both data & most importantly calls. I won't be able to make or receive, when I place the call during these failures it will
say dialing, connecting... and just continue until "call ended". And when I"m called, outside of LTE just say we've forwarded your call to VM. On
LTE, it will say something along the lines of this customer isn't able to receive your call at the moment.
Troubleshooting Attempts:
- Tried SIM in a different phone & it worked perfectly
- Power Cycled Several times, Factory reset it 3 times
- Set up 2 APN's (sorry can't link yet, but google them if u like they're ez to find. LG G4 VM Canada APN's)
- ^ Tried both, both unstable, but PDA gives most stability
- I've registered to all available networks under GSM/HSPA/LTE all unstable
- Connected Automatically & Manually to GSM/HSPA/LTE together & separately. All unstable
- Phone is not in Air Plane mode
Model: LGH812
Unlocked, Original Carrier: Rogers
Current Carrier: Virgin Mobile (Canada)
Android OS: Marshmallow
Kernal Version: 3.10.84
Build Number: MRA58K
Software Version: H81220x
Now, I have just recently come across a very interesting development. Using the App Network Signal Refresh Lite,
In pokemon go I've been able to transition to a signal that will stay solid for up to 5 minutes, 3 on average. It will still
lose connection, but will usually reconnect in-app in moments. I do have to minimize it & do a refresh again in NSRL
every now and then but it's a big improvement. Before hand, when I would use go, the service (calls included) would
completely rip in seconds.
So... any ideas? I'll appreciate any & all help.
I've flashed every stock rom I can for the device too, but the signal continues to drop regardless of the OS. Some error messages I' ve gotten are emergency calls only, no service & service disabled but usually it just shows that its connected to virgin but I can't make or receive calls.
Other than the cellular service, everything else with the phone works perfectly. The wifi, the camera, the gps, etc it would be a shame to have to get rid of it but the essentials first. I have to be able to make calls.
Please, anyone, any ideas? Are there any apps I can install to fix the broadband or something.
It won't remain stable no matter what I do... and no one has any solutions
tips, thoughts or ideas? Really regretting this purchase now... It's been a
month and I still cannot get a stable connection. This is ridiculous.

You may want to check out this link (https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h812-firmwares/) for an H81220X Bell/Virgin kdz (H81220x_00_1122.kdz) and use LGUP-NEW to install it. It might help but if not, you may be facing a hardware issue ...
Solved lg g4 losing signal
I bought my lg g4 K450 and within days l noticed my phone was losing signal constantly. By the grace of God l tried this and it worked.
Go to settings---Then to Network---To more---To Mobile networks----To network operators. Select search network. All available networks will be displayed after a thorough scan. Select your network provider with a WCDMA instead of GSM and it will register it. After it done registering, restart the phone. and u are good to go. It worked for me, if it works for u give glory to God.

So I got this phone from my Grandpa who recently passed. I was able to insert my AT&T SIM, reboot, and use the phone as normal on 4G+ without any issues what so ever.
Fast foward 24 hours and after rebooting my phone a couple of times and accidentally "Updating Profile" my 3G/4G no longer wants to connect. What's strange is Voice and Text still work as long as the text isn't a MMS since that server is also no longer connecting.
I have confirmed the radio is functioning as I can switch it off, verify it's receiving signal from the nearest WCDMA tower through the 4636 menu.
As well as airplane mode and wifi are working
Sometimes my wifi will not connect first-time unless I "forget this network" and use WPS button on Router to connect - it's like my phone won't authenticate the network once a password is entered. Once connected it stays connected without issue.
Some things I have tried already:
I have attempted to change APN settings to strictly AT&Ts 3G connection - no luck.
I've installed custom ROM, Recovery (Bad Boyz HTC 10 Oreo Stock ROM, TWRP) - no luck.
I've reinstalled stock firmware from HTC RUU - no luck.
Got a new SIM from AT&T and had a tech "diagnose" my phone - no luck.
I've searched all over the internet and found multiple threads about having no signal or no IMEI, but this doesn't completely fit my issue as you can see in my pictures I still have a valid IMEI and cell signal. AT&T said everything is fine on their end regarding my phone, but since it is not an AT&T phone any other support I'm going to have to find elsewhere (Screw AT&T)
The only other thing I can think to try is purchasing a Sunshine license to S-OFF and try manually deleting the radio partitions and then reflashing an older radio or stock radio, but I'd rather not spend $25 for this solution to not work or further complicate my matters.
My question is has anyone experienced this random loss of 4G connection but still have the ability to call and text on their HTC 10? I know this is an older phone, but I really like this phone after using my LG V20 for so long.
UPDATE: Put the SIM in my LG V20 that I was using prior to switching to this device and it is also now having the same issues.... Wtf is going on?
Thanks for any responses!

At your own risk, this:
In the bootloader enter these commands:
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
(this will wipe the faulty modem partitions we are about to reset)

I'm at my wit's end with this. I got this phone last year and it worked perfect until the stock Android 13 update. Then it wouldn't hold a signal to save its own life. I finally have wifi here so it's not as much of an issue, but when I leave my house I have to toggle airplane mode to get it to work again, or it's stuck on "emergency calling only" forever. I did recently put Lineage on it, thinking maybe that would help. The last couple updates it's a little better, it will sometimes get signal back on its own. However more often than not I have to toggle airplane mode or reboot to get service back. This happens all the time, a dozen or more times a day depending on how often I lose service. I did try to search the forums for an answer, but I kept getting errors back with the exception of one result with the same issue that said "tmobile only" under the fix.
I have:
Reset network settings
Reset APN
Manually selected a carrier and switched it back
Cleared cache through Android Settings
disabled/enabled mobile data
Toggled Mobile data always active
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Seriously considering going back to my LG G8 ThinQ and selling this thing, but I love the cameras on it. Side note: When I put the SIM in my old phone none of these problems exist.

Maybe contact Verizon support. They should be able to fix it or at least tell you what the problem is.

I tried that. I couldn't get anyone that was a technician on the phone and eventually after three days of not getting an answer they closed the ticket.

WOW, glad I am with TMO. Their support is the best I have ever worked with. To me they set the standard.
You said you reset the APN, but did you check to see if the APN is the same as on your other phone that doesn't have any issues with mobile service? Maybe check to see if they are the same, and if not put the APN in that works

That's a good idea, I'll do that tomorrow. Thaanks!
Assuming you're unlocked and rooted since running Lineage, so add this module in Magisk, and maybe also enable mobile data always active in developer settings for now as well.
[TMO] OOS/COS DATA FIX
TO CLARIFY THIS IS A ROOT ONLY FIX After gaining root install given module. Data is now retained. Even after reboot(s). No empty slot or waiting. Issue is TMO variant is showing multi sim. So props were added to make it like a conversion to...

Exact same issue, unlocked LE2125, TMobile simcard. Didn't have issue on custom ROM, but this is happening on OOS13. Tried everything NSA SA 5g dev settings nothing worked. Living with trying to remember to toggle airplane mode periodically.
