Hey guys, just did the October update this morning and now I can't get LTE. Icon just shows 4G. I've tried several restarts and cycling airplane mode and mobile data to no avail. Anyone else experiencing this?
October release? What's the build number? I don't see an October update anywhere.
Are you mistaking the hot fix for the October update? The October update won't be until next week.. it's always the first Monday of every month.

Are you on AT&T?
I am on AT&T. Version # is QP1A.190711.020.C3. It probably was the Hotfix.

There are quite a few people talking about it. I just don't know if there's a fix or not. I'm on T-mobile

There is. My Gf received the OTA yesterday.. I did as well. We are with T-Mobile. However, my bootloader is unlocked and I'm rooted so I ignored it. The security update will be next week, so I figured I'll wait to apply any updates.
4G and LTE are the same thing. Do a speedtest to check if you find the same speeds, but it's very likely just some regional assets not correctly fetched by the OS. The only reason why some builds show LTE in some countries is because of some very bad advertising from some providers (in the US for example some of them did that) where they called "4G" what should have been known as 3G+ (even though it was the same base protocol as 3G).
I'm seeing the same issue. Ran speed test and it's only hitting 10-12 Mbps. I'm also on AT&T. This happened after I updated today.
Flashed over with .020 and still having issues. No luck on the LTE.
I downgraded to .019 and was able to get LTE back. It automatically updated to .020 and I lost LTE again.
I had to downgrade back to .019 to get LTE back again. I turned off automatic updates in developer mode for now until the issue is gone.
xomikronx said:
Okay I figured out the issue. Hopefully this helps everyone here.
There are two updates from September, .019 & .020.
.019 is for all other Pixels.
.020 is for Verizon Pixels.
When the update for .020 was automatically applied to our phones, this is what broke LTE.
I didn't try updating from .3C to .019 to see if this would fix it. Maybe someone can try and report back.
What I did was just clean flash the .019 on my phone. Once Pixel applied the additional small update for Oct. I still have LTE.
Basically, we all on AT&T flashed the wrong firmware.
Good luck!

I have a Pixel 3 on AT&T. After the last hot fix I noticed that my LTE notification changed to 4G. I prefer the LTE icon as it is more informative that "4G" which has little meaning anymore. I ran a network signal info app and I am on actual AT&T LTE and my speedtest is 118 Mbps up, 6.7 down with 19ms ping. So am pretty confident that I am actually on LTE just that the icon changed. Based on your post I looked at my build number and it lists QP1A.190711.020.C3. So I guess I have the .020 that you reference.
Are you sure you did not have LTE and it was not just an icon issue? I don't really feel like flashing different firmware so might just live with the 4G thing unless the "wrong firmware" will cause some actual performance issues...

Same here. I have good speeds, just trying to figure out why the icon changed after the flash. Since the firmware was pushed to my phone does that mean Google is pushing the wrong firmware? I know this is not a regional issue because I flew around the whole US over the last two days with no change. I also reset my network settings with no change.
4G = LTE on AT&T.
If you are ever in doubt, do: *#*#4636#*#* from the dialer and select phone information.

I agree but I have always been on AT&T and through every Nexus and Pixel my notification bar always read LTE not 4G. My wife's P3 is on Google Fi with the latest update and it still reads LTE. I will check what hot fix build she got tonight. So why would my phone (and others here) read/indicate 4G now?
As I said, probably just an asset being fetched inconsistently. I know for a fact in other parts of the world it never says LTE but just 4G (because less bad communication around it here), so the system pulling one or the other is just up to how it associates the connected network to a region that says LTE or one that says 4G. My best guess would be that AT&T was misplaced in the last update for some reason that I can't imagine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I lost my LTE this morning.
Had to "disable" the Google eSIM.
Then re-enabled it and LTE came back.
Lost it again after a reboot.
Repeated the above steps and it's been solid since.

I had full bars with 4G on .020.3C and was only getting 10-15Mbps. It wasn't just an icon change then. It could also be the spot that I was in.
Anyone else having normal LTE speeds, but only have the 4G icon?

Thats for AT&T and/or Google to answer.
The bottom line is, regardless of what the indicator shows, use the dialer code and you will find out exactly what data network type you are on.
I have a Pixel 3XL and had the same issue. I did a factory reset yesterday and my LTE was good again

I have an unlocked 10 running on T-Mobile US. I previously had no problems at home with a 4G LTE connection. But after updating to 1.53.617.5 this week, my LTE signal at home has completely disappeared on me. What's worse, the phone shows full bars, and won't drop to a slower connection. I have to manually switch to 4G/WCDMA (Auto) and use the slower 4G connection, which I presume is HSDPA.
Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? I even did a factory reset, but it didn't help whatsoever.
Between this and the weak Wi-Fi, I'm starting to have second thoughts about this phone.

My LTE and wifi signal are slightly weaker on the 10 than what I'm used to seeing. Also on Tmo US. My LTE drops when I'm not upstairs lol. I took the ota when I first started up the phone so I can't speak for the other version.

Maybe try wiping the cache partition? Check the "weak Wi-Fi signal" thread for directions on how to perform it. Just a suggestion.

I just tried wiping the cache partition. No dice.
I installed the OpenSignal app to see what's going on. It seems that the phone is locking onto a cell tower that's many miles away (in the middle of a river!), instead of many LTE cell towers that are only a block away from me. This makes no sense. It also indicates full reception.
The latest update definitely messed something up. Perhaps it's related to the "Wi-Fi stability enhancements".

I have this problem as well, spoke to T-Mobile and of course they tried to blame it on the phone saying that they cannot guarantee that an unlocked phone will work with their network. I proceeded to tell them that the phone was listed as fully compatible with T-Mobile's LTE network they had no answer. I know it's not a solution at all but I'm on T-Mobile's prepaid service so at the beginning of next month just before I need to make a payment I'm switching to AT&T to see if that is any better
I'm somewhat disappointed and I really don't know if I should return the phone or not

While I do think the 10 doesn't get a signal as strongly as other phones do (my S6 was great), I think the latest firmware (1.53) has impacted reception for the worse.

I shouldn't have to flash the phone to get it to work. Also, the purpose of getting the unlocked version was to have a carrier-free phone.
The more I use this phone, the more I notice that LTE connectivity is screwed up. It likes to lock onto the wrong cell towers that offer no reception (but still display full bars).
What's interesting is that when I turn on Wi-Fi, the phone locks onto the correct cell towers.
Forget the camera; HTC needs to resolve all these radio connectivity issues!

I agree the purpose of getting the unlocked phone was to not have to have a carrier branded device. I noticed that as well with the phone connecting to be incorrect tower. It really is frustrating because I've already started paying for my phone so I don't want to have to return it, I like all aspects of it physically but something has to be done about this reception. I used to get 4 to 5 bars and now I'm lucky if I get two
This is really ridiculous, I've only had my phone off the charger for just over an hour and I've used 10% of battery. I don't keep Wi-Fi on all the time I only had to turn it on to use Wi-Fi calling because my signal is so bad, HTC really needs to do something with the radios in this phone because the poor cell signal is just killing my battery life. Is anybody experiencing this same problem?

Root your phone and then install better battery stats or gsam or any other utility that can show you specific wakelock stats and info. From there you can use that info to track down the specific wakelock.

I had LTE for around a month, then out of nowhere, no updates, nothing it disappeared, it's been gone for almost 2 weeks now.
My carrier (O2-UK) says there is no issue, I have literally no idea, I am almost certain it's just Oneplus phones.. but anyone have any info?
As I said, I've tried custom ROM, I've tried all the stock roms clean flashed.

I've tried all roms, all OOS versions. Same issue.
No one else has this issue?! Saw a few on google but no fixes...
I can say that my phone often sticks to edge when I disable the wifi, it won't switch to 3g/4g unless I enable/disable it. I believe this was not the case with oos 3.2.1, with which my phone came with (only have it for a week now). This also happens with CM13. I think there was a update to the radio in the last oos update, so this might be the reason.
I am currently on OxygenOs 3.2.4 and my Lte seems to work properly. I tested it on a 4g area for about an hour or more and lte sticks with no drop to 3g. I will test it more and report back.

I used to have solid good 4G here, now I don't no matter what I do. It isn't a network issue either
Did you double check your data SIM card is set to LTE? I had that setting change to 3g through a weird mix of circumstances. Was miffed I wasn't getting 4g and it turned out my SIM was set to 3g max.

I get LTE if I go somewhere else, eg just outside off where I live.
But I had very good LTE where I lived too, inside, outside, then a week or two ago it vanished.
same here always reverting from 3g to 2g biggest issue with this phone
please fix this 1+ we all having hard time with this issue
my 1+3 never stays on 3g or LTE always go back to 2g
Silly suggestion, but are you on the correct APN? My oneplus initially connected on the incorrect APN for my carrier and I wasn't getting LTE, but 3G/H. Once I corrected it, my LTE was constant in the places it should have been.
Works fine for me you probably just getting a stronger h+ signal and it's jumping between mast's

That would make no sense. I had LTE for a solid month sat right at this desk, now, none.
Where I am in the UK we have loads of cell towers around me and it's always jumping about. There is an app that lets you pick what cell tower you want to use, I have forgotten it's name but might be worth a look. Or could be they doing work in your area. Sorry can not think what else it could be
The oneplus 3 and oneplus 2 just don't like LTE, they will find any reason to go to H+/3
Same issue
I am on Three UK, have came from a Galaxy S7 Edge, and that got constant LTE in most areas, now my phone seems to prefer H+ a LOT more than LTE, reverting to it whenever it can, not great, OnePlus really needs to address this issue, wouldn't mind so much if LTE in my area wasn't 75Mbps, compared to 10Mbps on H+

Put me down for the same issue. With faster battery drain on 3.2.4, as well as random complete "no service" signal loss, for maybe 5 seconds. It's annoying as sin, and very disappointing. OnePlus at least is aware of the issue:

Have found no fix, have reverted to S7 edge, has MUCH better LTE and more reliable signal overall.
Has anyone noticed the ridiculously slow upload speeds of the pixel phones? I'm getting paltry upload numbers on two separate pixels. Any other Android OR iOS device is killing the upload numbers 3 to 1.
Is this a bug or hardware?
You'll have to give us a little more info here buddy.
Are you referring to Wifi? LTE? What Carrier? Are the phones on the same LTE bands?
I can tell you that on Verizon, I get fantastic Upload speeds on-par with my old Note 7. Normally 30-40Mb/s.
I can also tell you that if you are in an area running VZW's LTE Band 2, Upload sucks on that band. I suspect it's running a different slot assignment in the TDMA structure to prioritize download. Whenever I land on it, My upload speed is ~7Mb/s, But the download is blazing (100+Mb/s) depending on if you're in an area running Carrier Aggregation.
This was specifically about wifi. The wifi was tested in several different places on different networks.

I'm able to get >400Mb/s on upload tests here at our office (Engineer for an ISP). Seems to be inline with my old note 7.
I will agree however, The update they released (Got it ten minutes after I booted the phone up for the first time) supposedly fixed wifi issues.
I'm on an N build?
Yeah I'm not getting updates. Wondering if it's because I put a T-Mobile sim as soon as I received the device.

My VZW Pixel XL is on NDE63P (Build number at the bottom of phone status).
Do you have the VZW variant, Or the Direct from google Variant?
If it's the VZW variant, See if you can borrow a SIM from someone to get the update. Even if the sim it came with is unprovisioned, It might get you on the network enough to grab the update via wifi.
Yeah I do. I'm wondering if it will continue to get updates of I don't have a version SIM. That's a whole other problem now I guess. I'm going to do that and at least see if the problem of speed corrects itself. Anyone know what the build of the Google version is?
So.. Funny thing happened. I put the Verizon SIM in and I received the update instantaneously. Interesting. Looks like you do not get updates with another carrier's SIM in the Verizon model. I'm thinking that it's not really unlocked then. Super Shady Verizon with that commercial stating "Only on Verizon" and now this.
Anyway.. I'm off to testing the upload now with the update.

I suggest you call your carrier, let them know you have the newest latest Pixel and would like them to reprovision your line, explain to them it's slow.

I guess I missed the part about wifi in your post.
Id go to a local VZW store and test it out on their wifi while having their people witness to get a replacement if their displays arent showing the same issue.
So I got my pixel xl from Google today. It works but I am on T-Mobile and it will not connect to LTE band 4 or 12 which are in my area. I have an ATT SIM for my work which I popped in and it works fine. That said without driving around Atlanta to try to find B2 I cannot tell if it is T-Mobile or the phone. Is anyone else on T-Mobile getting LTE connection at all?
So news today I can connect to LTE. Yesterday when I got the SIM in using *#*#4636#*#* I would get zero reception forcing LTE only. The phone would only connect to UMTS/HSPAP. Today after several restarts and calling T-Mobile and Google support it is now working. Here is what I did.
First Google is saying the update is supposed to affect LTE connecting issues.
Second make sure your SIM is properly registered with your provider. They should elevate the issue to higher tech support to have them look into it. This takes up to 24 hours.
Third go to your dialer do the *#*4636#*#*, go to phone info and change the preferred network type to LTE/UMTS or LTE/WCDMA (I haven't seen a difference between them). (This info is in other threads) Then restart your phone.
The problem seems to be how the phone determines what bands the network provider uses. It defaults to CDMA as the voice connection. For me this meant the phone was always connecting to UMTS only. It seems the firmware has some kind of default setting when it senses an error out the gate. The APN settings and preferred network settings needed to be updated and the phone restarted for it all to work. I now connect to band 4 LTE in my area. I hope this helps others.
I am also getting slow data speeds on my pixel XL connected to t mobile
My XL seems to get pretty consistent LTE service and good speed on T-Mobile.
LTE in Chicago working well.

Google "Pixel LTE band 4 issue"
Weird. I'm getting pretty awesome Band 4 coverage in So. Cal. I also get Band 12 here, but Band 4 is what my phone tends to be connected to, which is fine since it tends to be significantly faster.
I'm in Oklahoma on t mobile getting slow connection compared to my friends. They each have a galaxy s6 edge and get between 70-80 MBs down sitting right next to me. I'm getting 14 MBs down. I just left sprint today for slow connection. Hoping to find a way to get this resolved ASAP.

Thanks. I changed mine to LTE/WCDMA. Will know how it goes next week.
All seems to be working on my end.
I was having delays in mms being sent. I was using the default APN. About a week ago I changed the APN to the one recommended by T-Mobile. Mms sends instantly now just about. I don't think it's effected much on LTE but I didn't have problems before. Make sure your on the proper APN
I sure hope there isnt a recall..My XL hasnt even shipped yet and im on Tmo
I spoke with a t-mobile rep yesterday who helped me get my issue resolved. My main apn was set up incorrectly. Now I am connected to LTE and not just hspa+. I get generally good speeds most everywhere and I have tower right by my house that must go fairly unused.
I have a rooted verizon phone. Haven't updated it at all to more recent updates, all the sudden my entire data signal and call signal are off. I got no service.
Anyone else this happen to?
Is the only way to fix this to flash back to stock to get updates?
Fastboot images
Google: pixel or pixel XL factory images download the image and flash it to your device. (Marlin or sailfish)
You will need to setup ADB and Fastboot drivers then you can flash stock. Do not relock your bootloader and if you do I am not responsible!
Also make sure things boot up.
Is everything ok with your sim?

You mean as in your about phone says Out of service and your data does not connect or you have the bars bug where no white bars in the status bar at the top? If you look at your signal strength, it should display your actual signal strength in dbm.
Thanks for your replies.... turns out Verizon had a long term outage. Took 2 days for them to fix it and they continuously denied having an outage till I pointed out that they sent me a message telling me they had an outage that was being worked on. SMH
Actually I talked to google and they are aware of the issue, related to band 4. They are "actively working on it" and plan on a resolution soon ™.
The rep claimed it's only on some devices, but that's BS.

I have no issues on Verizons band 4
I actually find Verizon's signal to be quite tight.

Weird. Probably is a Verizon side bug and google one then.
I just had this problem start up today. The status bar shows LTE, but I can't even get enough speed to run a speed test. I noticed it slowing down over the course of about 15 minutes and when I restarted it, it was dead slow. Interestingly, phone calls are fine. I tried turning airplane mode on and off as well. No dice.
Thanks Verizon.
Edit: just got enough signal for a speed test.
Down: 0.46
Up: 0.1
Also, I'm stock, unrooted.
Upon upgrading to 7.1.1, i have worse signal on Verizon with my Google Store purchased XL. I feel like flashing the old radio back to boost signal.

I'm sure if there was a Verizon Network Tech or Google engineer they could give the actual cause for this issue but that will never happen.
Basically the best thing you can do is call Google and call Verizon and complain to put pressure on them to fix it faster. I currently have a ticket in with Verizon and Google.

It turned out that a LTE tower near my work had crapped out. As soon as I got out into the open, there was no problem. Good luck to the rest.
