Best AT&T Radio / Modem - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

I am on AT&T and currently Viper ROM ... I have pretty much been a little disappointed in the overall cellular reception of my HTC10 since I got it (compared to my Nexus 6 - which I wasn't thrilled with it's reception -- but the HTC10 is worse!) The N6 reception was pretty modem or radio dependant.
I'm currently on the 1.53 firmware --- has anyone else had a better experience in a different radio or modem (on AT&T) ?
Does the 1.55 ROM have a different firmware and especially radio ??

I am on stock 1.53, use AT&T and have no complaints about service at all. It has been better than my S6 Active was.
Until people start a radio collection (They always have), you are kind stuck with whatever ones come with the ROMs. When they start posting them, then you can flash away until you find one that works better for you.

I guess, more importantly than the Rom, what is your baseband?
I know I live in a somewhat remote area but 90% of the time I've got good LTE service. But I have about a fifteen minute stretch of road that I drive where reception is really marginal (I even have a signal booster and external antenna for my car)
Pretty much most of this area with my HTC I have no service, where I rarely lost completely with the N6

This is my baseband. Stock 1.53 on unlocked US edition.
Area does play a big part. In Phoenix, I haven't had any issues.

Thanks
With that said, thinking that I had flashed both bootloader and radio to 1.53, I looked here (see screenshot) and saw this number for my baseband..... The same number was listed in the download mode info screen (along with 1.53.....OS)
What do you have?

[q] verizon 4g lte drops connection

I have a nexus on verizon and occasionally drops my mobile connection (voice and data) when I have 4g enabled. Everything works and stays up when I only have it set for 3g. I'm using the latest radio and bootloader with BB jellybean.
Has anybody had this issue before and was able to fix it with a software update or does it usually end up with having to exchange the phone? I'm really hesitant on swapping phones because everything else works great except for this issue. I was wondering if I could fix it with re-flashing everything.

I have same problem. I purchased my phone from eBay a couple days ago and I installed BB JellyBean after activated it. I didn't really care about 4g at the time. But, now with JellyBean, I can't use 4g (full-coverage) because it drops 4g/voice within a couple of seconds and I do not have any connection. However, with 3g only, everything works great.
I don't know if I purchased faulty device or not. But, everything works fine except 4g. I read many complaints about 4g connection on Nexus. so, I may just deal with it because I can live with JellyBean and 3g data with unlimited plan.
does it happen on ICS? JB hasnt been officially released for the vzw nexus.
return to stock and see if it happens.

I'm going thru something similar...I think the radios on the vzw gnex are not the best. I've been tweeting @vzwsupport ..they told me to remove sim card wait for 30 secs put back in and check but connection still sucks. Granted, I just want 3g...no 4g in my area. Just be hearing back from them in a few.

[Q] Extreme slow speeds, anyone else have the same issue?

Hi! New and proud owner of the new LG G3! Been using Samsung Galaxy from the first Galaxy to the S4. Thought I should Level Up Actually, tired of them.
Anyway, very satisfied, but I get extreme slow speeds with my G3. With my S4 I get around 30-40Mbit on 4G. I've never even seen the 4G icon on the G3. And my speeds are insanly slow. 0.97Mbit down and 0.06Mbit up!
Check out my Ookla Speedtest result. What's your speed? http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/887050990
Is there any new or other modem I can try?
I've been looking around but it's a fresh phone, so I guess there aren't so much to get a hold on atm?
I have the International model of the D855, 32Gb/3Gb ram
.
I live in Sweden, using Telenor. Never had any problems before.

Potentially need to flash the right firmware onto your device, is yours currently V10A-EUR.XX? if so, maybe have alook in the general thread for euro regions (or even your carrier fw)

Here is the firmware thread :good:

Here's mine hsdpa only while syncing in the background, you should check if it's provider related or if it's your device.

I know AT&T told me i need to call them when I get the phone to update my IMEI # or whatever to ensure proper data speeds. Maybe you need to do that for your particular carrier?

According to this, your device supports Telenor (owned by Net4Mobility) - I'd suggest giving them a call to see if 4G/LTE needs activated.
Try to change Sim. I had the same problem
Inviato dal mio HTC One_M8 utilizzando Tapatalk
Attached is my speedtest on HSDPA+.
Your slow speeds are not normal, could be your SIM or maybe the current modem is not ideal for Telenor.
If I were you I would try a different SIM first.
Did you set your APN according to your carrier?
I am getting super slow speeds too. They told me to take the phone back and get it replaced. They said that its an issue with some of the new G3s.

It shouldnt matter. Once we (by we I mean the developers) get a hold of the Firmware the LTE models can have the same love.
true dat. be nice to drop a 7105 5.0 rom on my note 2. be even nicer if t-mobile drops it though
How long until we get the first international rom?

You are certainly correct. However, some of us are T-Mo customers that live in marginal T-Mo coverage areas. We, or certainly me anyway, rely heavily on WiFi calling. So we depend on an actual T-Mo release. I have very recent (3 mos.) and very marginal LTE coverage and above average HSPA+ coverage where I live. (T-Mo still does not show my city in the LTE list!) I love the developer ROMs, but I use the WiFi calling a lot to improve my coverage. Of course, what does that make me, to stay with T-Mo in a marginal coverage area!? duh !!! Thank you for your wonderful development work.
Happy New Year to all!
sammobile annonced today the international Note II LTE in France is getting 4.4.2 update
we should get the 5.0 eventualy to extend our Note life for atleast another year...
looking forward to it in 3-4 months lol
Condolances - Stuck Like Me !!!! lol

Old thread I know, I have a similar issue and NO carrier in Orlando has any better network coverage where I live than any other, so it's WiFi calling or almost nothing and I'm not selling my house over that issue. lol
Please no one hold your breath for anything from T-Mobile on a Note II; please see this link:
https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates
Best to all of you, anyone needing T-Mobile semi-seamless WiFi calling on a Note II is stuck at 4.3.x

M919 Having AWFUL reception problems need help !

Having AWFUL reception problems Tmo SGH-M919 using M919UVUFNK2 Baseband
Tried updating the Modem 2 weeks ago. Used to use the MK2 and never had good reception but it did not drop as many calls and used to dial faster, but that's before, not recently. If I walk 100 yards away on the street, I can use the phone with no problems, 4G or LTE
I did a side-by-side with my GS3 and the GS3 can dial quickly, and has no drop calls.
The GS4 when it's receiving Edge, makes calls all garbled and a waste of time.
Kernel version 3.4.0-453951
[email protected]#1
Fri Apr 26 16:55:54KST 2013
Started getting a LOT of dropped calls, takes a hella long time to dial (when it does)
most of the time it just burps and goes back to the dialer screen. T-mo sent me 2 different repeater amps for the house and it does not do anything to improve the situation.
I have an Auto Stereo Head unit (pioneer) that interfaces with the GS4 using Mirrorlink and displays the GPS on a very large screen so I'd be screwed if I had to replace the model phone, as there ain't no DriveLink/MirrorLink that I can find that will allow me to get the GPS displayed on the big (Backup Camera) screen. Cannot dump the Pioneer head unit with Backup cam as it cost over $1700 to get it installed and working.
I'd like to hear anyone having had this problem and how they have remedied it.....
All responses appreciated!
Aloha and have a Great Day!

If you had to replace your Samsung GS4 with another GS4 - wouldn't you be able to simply reinstall the app you need to retain connectivity to your audio system?
Are you using a non tmobile sim?
Are you there. :what:

Sorry for the long delay,
We went on a trip and just got back. I did manage to repair the phone problem just minutes before we left. I had corrected the problem by flashing the most Current Modem onto the phone. Now I have M919UVUFNK2 in it and the reception is remarkably better. I might get one (if any) dropped call versus nearly every call. Before, communication would not be possible due to distortion, noise, or simply burps, and no sound after that.... I don't know if there was any other reason, but it's working VERY WELL, so I am not gonna try to figure out WHAT fixed it (if not the modem), and just leave things be..... since it's working better than ever before!
Thanks for the response!

AT&T reception issues

I know this issue has been mentioned but I cannot find an actual answer anywhere. Really love this phone but the bad reception is killing me. I am on AT&T in the US. The phone reflects I get 4g and LTE no problem. But the consistency of the signal is spotty and often throw very weak signal strength. I attached an imagine showing it. Does anybody have any ideas or solutions for this? I have tried 3.2/3 and I am on 3.5 which all have had the same issue. Call quality isn't too bad but data and signal is awful.

What are your stats? I mean which version you on and carrier and all? Seems like there are some at&t users not having issues. So I wonder what the difference is.

I live in an area with ****ty coverage from all carriers. My OP2 would pull 1-2 bars all over the house from AT&T but my OP3 regularaly goes No Signal or Emergency Calls Only while I'm at home.
It also happens sometimes when I'm out and about (I'll take phone out of pocket and it will be emergency only for a few seconds before popping back to AT&T)
I've tried disabling my second SIM (T-Mo voice, no data) and it doesn't seem to affect things either way.

I'm on att and my signal is sporadic. I'll have signal one minute, and none the next. Then I'll get one bar. It's weird. I've read the 3.12 radio helps this but I can't find a zip to test.
I'm on AT&T with no issues. I wonder if you guys have defective radios.
I'm on 3.2.4 100% stock with no root.

This is my second device. Got rid of the first because of this and then read that the update fixed it so bought it again.
I don't understand how some att users have no issue and others do if it's same phone and versions. Maybe it's on at&t side of things?
