Hi. I have a casual battery drain from time to time. I use betterbatterystats to check out the reason and two things are at the most-deep sleep and moderate signal. What's the second one about, does anyone know? I can attach some logs later, if needed.

Can it be from the baseband - I'm using .77 with stock .587 ROM and .587 kernel with CWM.

Hi, are you at some area with poor signal reception? I think it could be the thing when your phone reaches signal from far cell tower and it has to use more power to reach the cell tower. Or if theres a lot of towers it can use power switching and searching for towers.
I'm using 2G only and in my city the 2G reception is great, so I doubt it. I might try the previous baseband???

You can try other baseband, but I think its not gonna help. Well I didnt mean exactly the data (2G, or 3G), I mean just signal reception for calls, messages, etc.. So I think it will do the same even if the data were disabled. I was checking this app, but couldnt find anything about Moderate signal. You could try to contact the developer of this app, what that mean, or read some manual, if there is some.
Ok, i'll do it, but again, the signal strenght is at max all the time.... strange.

I am running my T-Mobile Note 3 on ATT. I have noticed whenever I switch from LTE to 4G that it shows no bars even though I know I actually have 3-4 bars of connectivity. Any ideas as to why this would be? Maybe something in settings?

I have also noticed that whenever I make a phone call, the status bars will switch to showing 4G icon only (from 4G LTE icon) and again show zero bars even though I obviously have a good connection and have no issues with the phone call. It must be some software bug.
This is on a rooted device with stock ROM by the way.

I just got fed up and switched my N900T to GSM mode only when home. More bars ( full ) and better battery life.
Ok I got it figured out. I had a setting checked off on Wanam that I shouldn't have and this was causing no bars to show when on 4G and edge. Unchecking took care of the problem.

The below screen shot shows approx 8 hours is this 8 hours since phone was removed from charger ? I think so just want to confirm.
Also the gap in network signal. I am assuming this means at some point for a certain amount of time my phone didn't have a signal ? If true this would be most odd as I have a cel fi signal booster in my home.
Thanks.

Yes you are correct the phone was on battery power and the signal was lost in the gap. Was it put in airplane mode. That would disconnect the mobile signal

No wi fi calling always off. Phone was also never put in airplane mode. So basically looks like my radio turns off sometimes.

There is another thread somewhere with people complaining about this happening to them, too. It happens to me, I think its a reporting bug in kitkat, mine shows big gaps too, but never has it not been connected to a tower.
I have recently got a LTE plan, however the 4g signal in my house is always just 2 bars, whereas 3g signal can be 4 bars and above. And I notice that the battery drains significantly faster with poor 4g signal. So I wonder if there's anyway to toggle back and forth between 3g and 4g? I've try tasker with secure settings but the lte option only support custom roms; I've also search in play store for 4g toggling apps but none of them seem to serve the purpose well. Do you guys have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Type in your dialer 3845#×855# (the last 3 number depends on your phone model) >lte only> modem selection> rat selection, it will open a option like this

Thanks for your advice, but I need a more convenient way so that I can toggle between 3g and 4g depending on the reception strength, this is a bit too cumbersome to do on a regular basis. Thanks anyway.

Download 4G Switcher and use that app as a shortcut to the settings.
Is anyone else experiencing Slow LTE issues? Even when I was at 4 bars on the freeway by the Vegas Strip where I usually get good speed I was at like 1.5MBPS. At home now and still around 2 or so. With my Note 3 I would run speed tests all the time with great speed. I have added the Note 3 APN and haven't noticed much change. Will be testing more tomorrow. Just wanted to get anyone else's thoughts? Using at my house as I have the Note 3 for a year and never got speed results this low.

yeah but the speedtest results show he was on a cellular signal.
Have you tried restarting the phone? And have you asked anyone else what sort of speeds they are getting in that area?
I'm not seeing any issues with LTE speeds..

Lol I was on Cellular I turned Wifi off. Also my Cable is 100MBPS so trust me it wasn't that
I'm going to test at the Att store tomorrow and try with their in store demo unit. Don't know who in Vegas I can ask. Because no one I know has the phone yet!!!
Same issue here. Same for Note3 though. I usually notice it when indoors. You can switch to 4g instead. *#*#4636#*#* will take you to the menu where you can specify connection preferences. It will last till reboot. Otherwise call At&t and complain. Maybe they will do something.
I've been having slow lte speeds Here in chicagoland. I've had better speeds on previous phones. And I've noticed I've tried the FCC speed test app and the -dm for the signal strength is different from that showing up in the phone settings
Trying to figure out if this is an issue for others or I just have a defective phone. My Verizon M9 has been occasionally dropping signal throughout the past 2 days that I've had it. It's not a signal strength issue and none of my other devices have this problem, so it's not my router.
Anyone else out there a effected by wifi drops on this phone? My build number is below, for comparison.

Have not seen this on mine. Wi-Fi performance has been better than the m8 for me. Netgear r8000 here.
Same here we have 3 m9's in house an no WiFi issue @dottat nice router i got same one
I use UniFi Access Points all over my home due to the size and no issues with WiFI whatsoever so far.
Thanks for the replies, I may be taking it to the store then to swap out since it's looking like the wifi on this phone is kinda defective.

If you disable the switch to cellular setting does it stay connected?
Or disable the Wi-Fi optimization.
