[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Thanks for the suggestion on calling Sprint and speaking with someone from the advanced tech support.

I did just that, the lady I first got, said she was in-deed elevated tech support, so she was pretty cool. She didn't have any suggestions or anymore other troubleshooting steps to do, as I have already done heaps of them, several times.

The only thing she recommended was to switch it to 3G (as you said) and see if I can atleast get some-what reliable (better) service, than what I was getting when it was set to LTE and Global.

For s-h-i-t's and giggles, I called Google Play, to see if they could let me know when the next update was going to come out. They of course claimed they had no information regarding any future updates or an ETA, so I was a little bummed about that.

I am at the point of trying to decide whether I want to swap out the Nexus 5 for another phone, so I can atleast get my moneys worth with Sprint. Today is the last day of my 14 day trial of using my phone, but I bought it through a third party authorized Sprint dealer (Wirefly.com), so maybe I can try to get Wirefly to make an exception to allow me to get a new phone past the 14 day mark, if this 3G doesn't end up working.

Thanks for your help, and everyone elses.

I hope we can keep this thread alive, so we can see if anyone else has had any good tech support people and they can post any resolutions or any new troubleshooting steps that they learned from when they called Sprint.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PynkFloydd:
No problem!! I've been seeing a lot of misinformation, so I figured that it's best to encourage people to get the same information that I was able to get. Sprint's customer service is actually really good, as long as you know who to get the call routed through or what questions to ask.

I also talked to a few customer service reps at Google today and I got the impression that they sounded like they're instructed not to discuss the issues. Some were like, "Oh? We haven't heard anything about issues with the Nexus 5." Another rep admitted that there was a memo stating that 'some' users that upgraded to 4.4.2 were having an issue, but only suggested that another update was on its way in the future. That was about all of the information that I was able to get and they didn't even have any troubleshooting tips or temporary fixes listed. Last time, they just told me to call my carrier because service issues aren't their problem.

If you have the time and patience, you can try flashing back to the baseband from 4.4 as a last resort. You'll have to unlock the phone, which will wipe everything. Be sure to make a backup first! Once a fix starts to push out, you'll easily be able to return to stock and reset the flag if you'd like. I don't have time at the moment, but that was my next plan if we don't see an update soon.

To do so:

1. Unlock

2. Flash TWRP

3. Flash 4.4 Modem (and make an EFS Backup)

4. Return to Stock
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Thanks a bunch! Let me know when you do it. I'm going to try just hitting 3G for now, see if that helps any of the problems and wait for the update. But really, do let me know when you've done this. I am anxious to see how it works out.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Anyone done this? Results?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PynkFloydd:
I probably won't have time to do this until after the New Year. I'm hoping that a new baseband update comes by then.

After speaking with the escalated tech specialist, my texts seem to be actually coming through and I haven't had a problem sending any out (like I did previously). I've just left the preferred network settings on 3G with wifi on. When I spoke to Airave support, they had opened a support ticket to look into this. The tech specialist said that he re-registered my phone on the network and pushed out a signal to completely re-provision my phone on the network. I really have no clue what he did on his end, but it looks like my calls and texts are coming through like they should.

Escalated support techs can also analyze your signal/connection, but he said that your phone would have to be on the network for at least 2 weeks for the analytical software to be able to do so properly. If you're still having major issues, it might be worth calling back and ask them to check your signal and try to re-register your phone on the network? Maybe they'll have an update regarding a software update also.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Right on. One of the good techs I talked to (not sure what Tier he was), but he was very knowledgable as well. He said that it may be a faulty sim. I went to Best Buy earlier this morning and picked a new one up. I am now getting 4G LTE in a lot more places than I did. Still not at my home though, still only hitting 3G here, but atleast its a hell of an improvement!

Thanks for your help again!

There's an issue with the Sprint Lte network in some areas that affect the newer LTE phones like G2 and Nexus 5

http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/5001-lg-g2nexus-5-lte-issues-thread/?p=235876
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
I just connected to Sprint, for about the 30th time since Dec 4th. They said this time, that there is an issue with the Tower that I can see from my house. Apparantly its not getting 4G LTE like it should. They gave me an ETA for a fix, by tomorrow around 1300hrs.

Hoping it helps.

I got a new SIM Card for my phone today, and I am now able to get LTE in areas where I wasn't before, so I am happy about that. Now just need to get it at home and I am golden.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PynkFloydd:
That's good to hear that you're getting updates on your issue! From my talks with Sprint, they're also working on tweaking network settings on their end and have pushed out updates to Airaves. They're actively working to fix whatever they can on their end. We're just not hearing anything from Google on this, which isn't cool.

I also noticed that "Google Voice" has been officially added on my Sprint account. Whatever they did, my texts and voice are working as expected, as far as I can tell. Last week was pretty rough!

Circuit Switched Fallback conflicts with legacy hardware are NOT the problems that most of us are dealing with on the Nexus 5. This is an issue that people are having on ALL carriers. Please read previous messages as I have discussed this already AND have talked to Sprint technicians about this.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Yeah. I can't remember if I posted on this thread or not, but I contacted Google, and they acted like they don't know anything. Kind of upset me a bit.

Our of curiosity, is anyone an app developer? Does Google let you guys know when they are releasing an update, so you can confirm that your app works with their latest updates?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:
Sprint FINALLY got around to fixing the Tower closest to my house. I am now getting 4G LTE inside of my home.

Excited as hell! :)

Now, they need to fix the one near work, and I will be golden!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsteelx:

Got tired of dealing with crappy A$$ Sprint, I switched to AT&T!

So if i am correct, i can run this tool, it will update my hboot to 2.16 and then i can install MaximusHD 10.0.0?

or do i need to install MaximusHD 10.0.0 first on Hboot 2.15 and then run this tool for Hboot 2.16 and then flash MaximusHD 10.0.0 again?

this RUU business with HTC phones have always confused me...

things were much simpler with my older Samsung Galaxy S.

i'm currently on viper rom 2.

can i update my hboot to 2.15 with this tool, while i am still on viper rom?
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
Yes you should be good
[HTC One S] chins6509:
I am currently on Hboot 2.16 and I want to move back to 2.15. My phone is Ville and brought in UK (Orange).

Can I use the "Official Unbranded 2.15 Firmware (Sense) FUU" to downgrade? I have read the above posts but I just want to make sure before I take the step.

So, i need to flash the 2.15 supporting ROM first and then downgrade the hboot?? And I am currently on 1.20 radio.

Thanks.

FINISHED FLASHING. Thanks a lot
[HTC One S] chins6509:
resolved
[HTC One S] ippon:
that's awesome!

where do i locate the firmware zip file?

my phone was originally from Virgin Canada, which is a subsidiary of Bell. does it have to be that particular original RUU? i am unable to locate that file from this thread;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2094414

once i am able to do this, it will definitely only flash the hboot, and not do anything to my current ROM?

Well if you run and flash the unbranded fuu it should work for you

And no it will not just flash hboot it will upgraded all of your firmware

[Resolved] Can't Mount

After Flashing

i cant mount my sdcard in recovery. I wanted to install CM11 with hboot2.15. with the recovery from the CM Thread.

Came from Maximus HD 10 and HBoot 2.16

Flashed HBoot 2.15

Format SD

Install

Thanks for your Work
[HTC One S] ghostdweller:
i've been trying to read up a bit about the necessity to upgrade your hboot & what are advantages ?

but i can't find a conclusive answer to my question

i've just upgraded to viper 3.*

did supercid and s-off

happy with my phone only battery life seems a lot shorter

can upgrading the hboot resolve that ?

and if i upgrade my hboot from 1.13 to hboot 2.15 will i loose S-off, supercid, root, or will it whipe my rom or sd card ?

any help would be greatly appreciated , i'm kinda lost in between knownots and knowalls
[HTC One S] rc420head:
I don't think hboot will help battery but flashing 1.20 radio might.

Yes SD will be wiped, rom should remain there but since SD is wiped you'd need to reflash rom.

No you will not lose s-off or scid

[HTC One S] PsychoKilla666:
For some reason whenever I try to update my hboot to 2.16 my sdcard partitions get corrupted, it turns appdata to 16GB and sdcard to 50MB, I have tried multiple guides and lastly this one hoping it would work but I still get the error.

I will be restoring RUU and reunlocking/rooting and staying on 4.3 Sense 5.5 until I can figure out a reliable way to try the hboot update again
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
That's going to happen you have to format your sdcard after you upgrade
[HTC One S] PsychoKilla666:
Pardon my ignorance, but how would I best go about doing that?
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
first backup your sdcard

Flash the Rom you need on 2.16 so you don't have to push the Rom via adb

Run the fuu or flash the firmware

then wipe your sdcard in recovery
[HTC One S] PsychoKilla666:
Great, thanks a lot, I'm sorry I didn't think of something like that, I appreciate your help

Hey

Flashalot, Maybe the firmware is corrupt and need to be fixed?

[HTC One S] Flashalot:
No its not its encrypted the firmware is if you drag it back in there it will pop up with the error it should just run
[HTC One S] matu89:
sorry i think i didnt understand u :(

the error is preventing the replacement of the .txt file .... so in any case i cant make the replacement and by that i will get an error while flashing...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lirezh:
I had android GE 4.3 on it, rooted.

I have the original GE bootloader (that robot) installed.

I downloaded the official 4.4 update through android, rebooted for install.

Now after the install the phone does not boot up anymore, instead it goes into RECOVERY and shows that triangle robot.

I tried wipe of cache and data wipe.

Whatever i try I am not able to get this device into fastboot / bootloader anymore!

It takes longer than usual,, it is stuck in that HTC screen since I have unlocked the bootloader but it does not enter the usual menu.

Instead it just directly goes to the robot.

I tried about everything I could think about,

It seems the OTA really bricked my phone by damaging the bootloader so it does not load at all anymore.?!?!

The only USB accessible feature I see is that in the robot screen it registers a device through USB.

Sadly not ADB or fastboot, it is a volume. It even loads as volume but is inaccessible (like a CD without disk)

Windows recognizes it as WDP FileSystem.

I doubt this will help at all, just wanted to note it.

I am about to throw the phone into trash, if it had not been so expensive.. Anything that can be done to repair this brick ?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lirezh:
Hi,

I solved it.

It took about 30-50 reboots until the phone entered the fastboot menu.

The problem was that the phone kept skipping the whole fastboot menu and went into recovery instead.

I have upgraded stock 4.3 device in my note 2 twice but i have noticed that its actually worse than before because it take 48 to 50 percent RAM when no applications are running in the background. System also take more space in internal memory. Gallery is looking bad as compare to 4.1.2. You get many security message and apps get forced closed..You can only pull down notification bars by dragging it from center and before you can pull it down by dragging from top corners as well. You also had all setting in one page before unlike in 4.3 where they divided system setting in 4 parts

The only improvement i found was the move to SD feature which was missing before, gear watch support is useless for anyone who don't have this watch so how is your experience and what are the improvement you noticed in 4.3 update which appeared after so long time but did not bring much improvement
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obazda:
Your question is not clear enough. Better or worse in comparisin to which rom??

Well, it depends on which features you want.

I am on cyanogenmod 10.2 because they have some cool stuff inside....

Some stock features i miss are the easy share via wifi-direct and the calendar.

But brings the stock 4.3 the new 'KNOX' security made by samsung?

If it is true, then you will loose your unsafed date if you root your device.

This is the main reason why i have changed to the Cyanogenmod.

But if you want to keep the touchwiz and the samsung features, look for a rom based on touchwiz ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
I am on Criskelo 4.3 and even though I am not fan of custom ROMs and prefer to have stock rooted ROM and then modify it with Xposed, I must say that 4.3 (and Criskelo) is just great. I had it for like 6-7 days, of which 2 days I was installing/restoring apps and had to reboot several times, but last 5 days I didn't reboot it and it has been working like a clockwork. The battery life is roughly the same, but it does feel a lot smoother. And I am NOT saying this after flashing clean ROM, but after restoring all of my +400 apps. So I don't want to advertize here, but I am 100% satisfied so far and for me 4.3 is better in terms of performance than 4.1.2.
