These signal drops are getting ridiculous

[Lois]

Well, first day of use seemed better. One oddity, though, after I invoked it, my tap-sounds went away, and the setting to turn it back on crashed. I rebooted and was able to restore the tap-sounds. I'll report back after a few days of use. I do get 4G fine in other locations; it' just real spotty in my office.

Lois, hi, I have the sounds and the vibrate feed back (haptec whatever) on my board and no matter how much I play with the settings in different apps the feedback and volume is different.

Tried turning on global mode and off, same problems. I am going to try a factory wipe this weekend and only install foxfi and reddit news free (my only main apps) and if the problem persists, im taking it straight to verizon.

Drop sinal

I tried the app LTE on/off. Now it says 1X it don't change. Need help?

You need to have it set to lte/CDMA/evdo. Then reboot your device

 

[Lois]

After a few days of use, I'm a convert to the LTE on/off app. Not only am I getting much better battery life, but my battery isn't getting hot like it used to (measured both by touch and via a widget that displays battery temp.)

Are you staying on 3g?

 

[Lois]

I think it comes back to 4G on power-up, but I set to 3G when I arrive at the office, where I have the problem; then I put it on WiFi at home, and let it go on 4G elsewhere, unless I notice it getting hot, and then I put it back on 3G, which seems to be pretty reliable at work - or at least when that signal is problematic it doesn't seem to heat up or drain the battery like it does when it's trying to connect 4G and has difficulty.

 

[lloydstrans]

I leave mine on 3g unless I have a need to download large files. I.e. PDFs or updates.

I turned the setting to Global mode, but it still had the problem, but it seemed to have a small helpful effect. Over time the problem fixed itself, I think it was something relevant to my data usage, but I have no proof.

Make sure you have it in LTE /CDMA mode and make sure under settings, data usage that "set mobile data limit" is left unchecked (unless you do have a tiered plan).
