[Galaxy S 5 General] lost_:
I think I was able to add Band 12 to my G900T. EFS Professional couldn't make it to stick, so I used QXDM and first wrote zero to NV 06828 and 06829, then wrote decimal 67087 to add Band 12 (original bands were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 and 17).

After rebooting, I read the NVs from EFS Pro and QXDM and verified that they had the new value. However, Service Mode *#0011# LTE Band Preference does not show Band 12 as an option. Is this as expected?

I set it to All Band anyway.I'm in Washington DC market where Band 12 is supposed to be available. Any thought on how I can test for sure that the newly added band is working?
[Galaxy S 5 General] yakapa40:
hello

i think you have made some errors

NV6828= 67087= b1,2,3,4,10,11 and17

if you want to add b12 décimal value is 67807

if you want to test only b12 change NV6828 to 2048

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigerDNA:
I've watched a bunch of youtube and looked through here but nothing really answers this, can you put ANY app you want on the edge? I remember on my Note II, there was a side launcher you could enable but it took an xposed module to gain the ability to change/add apps from the 10 or so preordained apps. Is the edge launcher the same or is it more like the S5 Toolbox where you can choose any apps you want?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svnyster:
I have seen similar posts of this issue with the Z3 and Z3C, but I wanted to post my experiences and see if anyone that has this issue has been able to resolve it.

I have an unlocked D6603 that I purchased directly from Sony US. When I received it, I got a new LTE SIM from AT&T, but did not give them the IMEI from the Z3. I activated the SIM and still have my old phone's IMEI listed as the device (LG G3). I inserted the SIM card, downloaded the APN settings, rebooted the phone, and everything was working great.

When I got home from work the next day, my wife said that she had called and sent me text messages that I did not receive. I rebooted the phone and all of her texts (as well as texts from other people) came through. This happens almost every day, and sometimes multiple times in one day. I either have to reboot the phone or change the network settings from LTE to WCDMA for the texts to come through.

One thing just noticed while making an incoming call.. My Z3 has full LTE signal, but when the call is coming in, it immediately switches to HSPA, and when the call is disconnected, it immediately switches back to LTE. Not sure if that's normal behavior or not, but figured I would include it in this post.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augie7107:
Same issues with AT&T. Intermittent calls and texts. It's thanks to AT&T's archaic verification system. Because you don't have a bloated AT&T issued device, you need to keep your old (AT&T issued device) IMEI to be able to get LTE signal for data. If you give them your current Z3 IMEI, you will always receive your texts and calls on time but you will not be able to get LTE because your IMEI is not registered in their database. It's a classic case of a carrier advertising "bring your own devices to our network but we won't load your IMEI so you can access the services you actually pay for", pathetic. T-mobile and Verizon actually offer the device but AT&T won't. Also, AT&T does not offer voice over LTE so your calls will always be 3G (H or H+) when connected and when disconnected your phone will go back to LTE for data. You have two choices with the extortion king, AT&T. Update IMEI and get all calls and texts in a timely matter while forfeiting LTE or leaving your old IMEI and get LTE but miss calls and texts. Ridiculous.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AirBaker:
Has anyone tried to use a Z3 IMEI in the last month? I know that when it first came out, it was an unrecognized device for purposes of LTE, but at some point that will change. For example, I am using a Z2's IMEI right now, and that certainly is not an AT&T device.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svnyster:
I changed the IMEI on my AT&T account to match my Z3's IMEI, since I would prefer to receive all of my calls and texts over having LTE. After making the change and rebooting my Z3, I still had an LTE connection and I did not experience the missed calls/texts for a few days. Yesterday, I did not receive any texts or calls so I rebooted the Z3 and texts started coming through. So it appears that using the Z3's IMEI is still preventing calls and texts from arriving.

After adding the Z3's IMEI, it is still showing as an unknown device with AT&T, yet it does get an LTE connection.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -DM-:
I just picked up a Z3 straight from a Sony store last week, stopped by an AT&T store first to get a nano sim which they handed me with no question asked but I didn't activate right away as I still had my ion on....

Once back home inserted the nano sim in the Z3 called AT&T to activate the sim, they sent me a text to verify my account and the settings were downloaded to the phone, they asked me if it was a new phone, just told them no just a new sim in my old phone...right away I noticed that I didn't have LTE at all, so went into the APN setting which were a bit different that what I had in the xperia ion, deleted the APN that was downloaded by AT&T to my phone and entered the ion settings manually into the Z3 and right away LTE was back....not a single problem receiving calls/texts and LTE on full time since then...

APN settings (the difference is in the name of the APN from what was downloaded by AT&T if I recall correctly)

The same issue is affecting me too. I also have the D6603 on AT&T network. Don't bother asking AT&T for help, they will say nothing is wrong w/ their network (which I think is technically correct). This sucks because I was motivated by their bring your own device promotion only to be disappointed that they can't help resolve this issue.

Anyway, turning LTE off made the calls and texts more timely for me. So the easy workaround is to add the LTE toggle quick setting button so you don't need to click a few places to get into settings > more... > mobile network setting > network mode > to turn off LTE. This should default you to WCDMA/GSM when LTE is off by the way. I think the speed is somewhere between 3G and definitely not as fast as LTE, but not unbearable either.

This is still a pain in the butt given that we freaking PAY for LTE, but it's a simple work around (for now at least...)

I did try your APN settings, which seemed to work at first, but the issue came back after a day or two.

I contacted Sony about it and they are placing the blame on AT&T. They also had me do a software repair using the Sony PC Companion software. I'll have to test it for a day or two to see if I continue to have problems or not.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudH:
I have to disagree with some of the comments above. I'm on a D6603 in Texas purchased from the Sony online store several months ago. Had to go to a store to get the new sim card anyway and the salesman registered the phone using the IMEI off the box. The Z3 was added as a new phone on the account (I wanted to take my time moving stuff plus I intended to port my old number to Google Voice anyway). I did the setting option to download the APN myself a few minutes later. The Z3 shows as unknown model on ATT online but LTE data works fine and I've had no problems receiving/making calls or messages. So, using the z3's real IMEI is NOT the problem. Perhaps the problem is some setting that doesn't get reset properly when switching an existing phone whereas adding it as a new line avoided that?

here's my experience.

1. I have a straight talk sim card (it uses ATT network) and I experience the same problem.

2. My Xperia Z3 D6603 has LTE coverage, but after a while - even with signal at 2/3 bars - it doesn't receive calls or texts until I restart it, switch airplane mode on/off, or toggle LTE/3G.

3. I know for sure this is not related to the rom I'm using: the phone was in stock conditions (kitkat 4.4), then I rooted and installed a debloated stock lollipop rom... still the same problem.

4. I also know that this is not a sim card issue: we have 2 Xperia Z3 phone (one is my wife's). If I swap my sim card in her phone I have no problem, and call and sms get through. So only one of our Z3's is affected by this problem.

5. Finally, the only way I found to work around this was to switch to WCDMA (preferred)/GSM (instead of LTE preferred/WCDMA/GSM). In this case i receive all calls and sms but I have to give up LTE.....

Any thoughts?

Thanks a lot for your help!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svnyster:
I actually ended up switching devices, because I was unable to do my daily work without consistent LTE, and I got tired to switching between LTE and WCDMA.

Everything I read from AT&T shows that the LTE bands they use are 2, 4, 5, and 17, which the D6603 has all of those bands. However, my new device (Samsung Galaxy Note 4) also includes LTE Band 12, which the D6603 does not support. I know that Band 12 is used by T-Mobile, but if AT&T is using this band in certain areas, that could possibly be part of the explanation of why we're having this issue.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrYous:
Thanks [MENTION=5933445]svnyster[/MENTION]!

I also don't think that switching between LTE and WCDMA is acceptable.

But what confuses me is that we have 2 Z3s and only one of them has this problem...

Any idea if unlocking all bands as suggested here would help?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augie7107:
Pretty sure it has something to do with how AT&T recognizes your IMEI. Check your account and see what icon shows for both devices. If they are different, that's the culprit. I can't get calls and messages with LTE enabled on my Z3. Fine with 3G. My solution was to leave LTE off until I needed it to stream outside of Wi-Fi. AT&T recognizes my IMEI as a flip phone. I have a HTC M9 as well, unbranded edition, and AT&T recognizes the IMEI as a M9 and calls and messages come through immediately even though LTE is switched on.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbsteebs:
i've resorted to leaving LTE off and using the H+, which someone explained is sort of like 3.5G but not quite 4G. At times I'll turn LTE on when I want to watch a video and am unable to connect to wi-fi. Sometimes I'll forget to turn LTE off, and find out later friends were trying to reach me but couldn't. As a result, for me, leaving it off is better (so I can be reached for clients or emergencies).

Still, I realize this is unacceptable, but AT&T does not support this phone (or sell it), so at the end of the day, it's my problem for wanting this phone in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I still like it a lot, but this issue and others are becoming a headache that Sony and AT&T could've gotten right from the get go.

Also, I did upgrade the Z3 to Lollipop. I've noticed the battery draining a bit quicker. Instead of having ~50% by end of day, I'm not at 25% levels. Not quite dead, but I still feel the urge to charge mid day when before I didn't have that urge.

Still, I like being able to move (some of) my apps now to the SD card, freeing up the barely 16 GBs on the phone.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augie7107:
Well stated on the AT&T piece. They advertise bring your own device but when it doesn't work properly, they say it's your problem. Poor business ethics. Simply updating their database with your IMEI and a device identifier would solve the problem and their customers could bring their own devices and use LTE, like they're paying for. What a novel idea.

Awesome! I just received my D6603 last week (Wednesday 5/6) and it works great in Northern California. I'm getting LTE on my signal display when not on the phone. When talking on the phone it switches to H+(not a big deal for me). I traveled to MSP - BOS this week and received LTE at both locations. I'm very happy with the way this phone is operating on AT&T's network. At the AT&T store, they gave me a SIM card, scanned the IMEI from the box and everything immediately worked great.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudH:
Yes

Don't think ATT has turned on VOLTE other than testing so switching out of LTE for a call is a must.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajent:
This is interesting and kind of unfortunate to read. A lot of people with the OnePlus One are experiencing the same issue, me included. I was looking to get another Xperia phone, as I liked my Z3v but had to return it. Was hoping my delayed texts / missed calls would be eliminated by using a different phone. My Oneplus had this issue when I was using an ATT G3 IMEI, so I thought it was that, and I switched to the real Oneplus IMEI, LTE is still active but issue persists. When LTE + WIFI is enabled is the only time it happens for us. This issue happened after updating to Lollipop, if we flash the radio that was included for CM11S, everything seems fine.

You are not alone!

I just received a replacement z3 phone from a screen repair company (they had broken my last z3.) My last phone worked great with its original IMEI on the ATT. This replacement they gave me gets 4G and reception but the reception goes in and out every 10 feet of movement or so and is noticeably weaker than what it should be. I am using the NXTGENPHONE APN I found on the ATT website. This same APN worked fine on my last for getting LTE and reception. Now on my replacement phone, which is a d6603 and seems to be from the UK, the reception and data is unacceptably unreliable.

There is no LTE option on the mobile networks setting because it is a UK phone.

There is no VoLTE calling or wifi calling options to change because it is a UK phone.

I'm located near philadelphia in an area with very good reception. Any ideas?

Before I start, the problem underneath appears on a fresh installed lollipop installation on a XT1092 which is converted to a XT1095.

After setting up my VPN on my Moto (using IPSec Xauth PSK) I see some strange things happening:

- CPU load is going max ("System" process is using all CPU)

- When pressing the ON/OFF button the device is rebooting.

- Wasn't able to check data connection due to slow performance/spontaneous reboots after turning VPN ON. However settings are 100% correct and key symbol is shown(used them before on this phone (as original XT1092 under 4.4.4) and using them on 4 other devices).

Sadly I cannot find anything in the logs which can point me for the reason of this bug (using OS Monitor for this). Somehow I have however the feeling this bug is caused by the conversion from XT1092 to XT1095 (while using a backup of the XT1092 4.4.4 modem).
