Hey RockStar2005, we also have an iPhone 6/Galaxy S4/HTC One M8 in the family and MMS works fine on them as well, so I don't know what's going on, I definitely know you aren't the only one as many others also complained about this issue. I suppose it's the network in your area to blame?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Abinhav,

Yeah it never seems to be EVERY phone, but a number of phones. And I dunno, it could be the area.

Do you have T-Mobile Abhinav?

Thanks,

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Yes I do, in fact I believe you replied to me on the TMO support forums regarding deployment of Lollipop about a month back.

This phone really is great especially after band 12 deployment, now I have full LTE signal vs the rest of the non B12 phones in my family with only 3-4 bars.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Oh ok. I know we've talked on here but can't remember in T-Mo forum.

Maybe it is an area thing, though I doubt sillie lives in the Chicago area too (so if it's an area thing, it's NOT just Chicago). Sillie, where do u live? lol Please respond to my other post too.

Yeah in Chicago though, I can't take advantage of Band 12 b/c Channel 50/51 WPWR uses the same frequency as Band 12, so have to wait until T-Mo and WPWR resolve things in multiple cities, including Chicago. It annoys me b/c in some buildings I know I'm not getting a strong signal b/c of this issue. I'm hoping it gets resolved soon.

I can't speak about outside areas, but for home if you don't like WiFi calling you can get the LTE Signal Booster for free from TMO.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
abhinav,

I disabled my WiFi Calling feature the day I got my phone. Always have. Even if T-Mobile has fixed the MMS issue it causes, I'd still rarely use it, if ever. I think it's only good if you live in an area with poor reception or if you're traveling overseas and don't wanna have to pay for the call.

You mean the T-Mobile/Asus router? Yeah I got that, for free too! T-Mobile REALLY came through on that one. A $200 router that's very well-rated & powerful as F (it's a BEAST of a router!), for free (free shipping too)?!! Looks really nice too. Since I don't use a landline anymore, I gave back my modem to Comcast so I wouldn't have to pay the $10/mo leasing fee on my Comcast bill, and instead bought this extremely well-rated Motorola/Arris modem which actually pays itself off in no time and saves me money in the long run. I highly recommend doing this esp if you don't use a landline anymore. Setup was pretty easy you get to choose from 2 speeds........ 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The 2.4GHz option is not AS fast as the 5GHz one, but the has a wider range. So if you get them, use 5GHz unless you live in a really big place then maybe 2.4GHz is better.

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Hey Rockstar2005, not the router, I mean the actual LTE booster it has two parts a LTE receiver which takes signal from nearest tower and the booster part which amplifies. You place the receiver near a window in the direction where signal is strongest and the amplifier somewhere towards the center of your home.

I also live in area of great signal, but I told them indoor reception sucked, which it did before band 12 and the rest of my devices don't have band 12 so they gave it to me.

I prefer not to use their Asus cellspot router, as I am a tester for Netgear so I keep getting better high end routers every few months anyway:p.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Oh ok. That's what the Cellspot is supposed to do that........... make everyone's home who uses it a mini cell tower. lol Of course I guess it only really helps other ppl if you don't password-protect it. lol

Nice! I told them it sucked b/c I wanted it free. LOL Now I got a CRAZY fast router. T-Mobile forever!!! lol

Oh nice! If I was you I wouldn't either. But I am VERY happy with my setup. Until Comcast upgrades their network again, which will prob be a while since they just did a few years ago, I'm set. Even when they do I may not necessarily upgrade my plan right away. I get like 120 mbps since they doubled my 50 mbps plan for free a year ago. So I'm actually getting MORE than double the speed. Downloads on laptop or phone go through super fast.

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
The cellspot is a good WiFi router with optimized QoS for TMO VoIP while the LTE booster is an actual mini cell tower. I guess it doesn't matter if you already have one or the other.

Either way this is a whole lot better than Sprint, who had great customer service reps who gave discounts to compensate for the bad network and false network upgrade promises. Their maps were very unrealistic as I barely had 2G even though the map said good 3G and even their peak 3G speeds in good areas were slower than TMO 2G and the LTE was like 3G plus the eCSFB switching issue due to triband LTE and no VoLTE support. Messaging was comical, a message would either come repetitively or not come till hours or even a day later. Glad I switched to TMO last Oct.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sillieidiot:
Yours. I think it was from HoFo or something. In the Nokia forum lol If not, my bad, someone else has a similar SN lol

Yeah I used to use textra for a long time. I only recently went to hangouts because of work. I'd rather have just one app that handles it all, although the UI for hangouts sucks.

But yeah, I used to have the iPhone 6 and did that and it went away. I now have the Z3 Compact that doesn't have VoLTE, and it works fine lol The only thing that sucks about this phone is no B12/VoLTE/Wi-Fi Calling.

edit: saw your other post

I live in Socal, they just started rolling out B12 in my area. There's already VoLte though.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
sillie,

Ahh ok. Not sure what HoFo is and I've never been in any Nokia forums. Pretty much only xda and T-Mobile.

I C. Yeah Hangouts' UI doesn't do it for me. lol But if it was a work thing, I'd use it I guess if it made life easier. I actually prefer to have my IMs and texts separated. Combining them confuses me. lol

Well at least it went away. But did you get rid of the iPhone 6 after getting Lollipop? I just wanna know if you had the same MMS issues I mentioned AFTER getting Lollipop on the iPhone 6?

I C. Yeah not having Band 12 and VoLTE isn't so great, but I mean, I have them, but have issues with both as I mentioned to abinhav (and you). lol

With regards to the Z5 and HTC One M10, I'm gonna have to decide which one is worse, not being able to use VoLTE or not having a great camera. If the M10's camera is up to par with the Z5's, then I may switch using my JUMP option as the M10 won't come out 'til after Z5 (I think lol). But I'd only consider that if the Z5's VoLTE was messing with my texts again. If the M10's camera wasn't as good, I'd just (continue to) put up with VoLTE's BS and keep it disabled. As great as T-Mobile is, it's unfortunately not perfect. Even on the iPhone ppl are having these issues? Geez. That just makes me think it's even more T-Mo's fault. If you're gonna offer up something like WiFi Calling and VoLTE, then they should be tested THOROUGHLY on EACH AND EVERY DEVICE that's labeled as being compatible with them. But this isn't the case it seems. So I dunno. Makes a customer feel helpless but I guess that's just how it is until they fix it. Even if I switch phones it sounds that's no guarantee of anything.

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sillieidiot:
yeah it just makes it easier for me since all the contacts are in one spot.

Well the iPhone 6 runs IOS so there is no Lollipop? I'm running Lollipop on the Z3C right now and it's fine. I just have that mobile radio bug that everyone has but that's it. Yeah I can do without both wifi calling/VoLTE if i had B12 though. I'll just wait for the Z5 and pick that up. Since the Z3+ has B12 already, but plagued with the 810.

When I just do iMessage to other iMessage users, or Hangouts to Hangouts, there are no problems whatsoever with messages/pictures/etc. When I do iMessage with normal SMS/MMS that's when there are problems. If I turn off iMessage and use only SMS/MMS it's even worst LOL Like the receiving party would get like 10% of whatever I sent.

BTW, for textra, did you try using the MMS setting that is specifically for tmobile? I didn't have it set with that when I was using textra on my Z3C, but it seems like it would be useful for your phone
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Yeah man, that iMessage caused real issues for me too pre-Lollipop. I found a fix (2nd half of my Original Post, #7) for it which I'd posted on multiple spots on here and T-Mobile's forums, but now I think it's really just VoLTE causing it cuz back then I had it disabled but had to do other stuff too. Not sure if the other stuff (#7) is needed now. When ppl I knew with iPhones had it on, I rarely got their picture MMS messages. When it was off, I always got it. My #7 fix and disabling VoLTE and using Textra all helped, but now it seems the issue is only VoLTE, though I still do the #7 thing only when I clear the cache on Textra, which was only once after I got Lolllipop.

Oh yeah, I did use that Textra setting. As you may have seen, my OP mentions it too. lol It's for WiFi Calling, but for me I like it b/c it disables WiFi if I happen to have it on since MMS messages CANNOT be sent/received over WiFi, only using data (i.e. 4G LTE).

RockStar2005
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sillieidiot:
Yeah I pretty much didn't have any problems with MMS on the Z3C pre/post lollipop. Sometimes I get SMS jumbled up, but that is totally a Tmobile problem lol

I see, yeah I always have WiFi on. It still just takes cellular data like normal even with WiFi on. It doesn't disconnect from WiFi, but shows activity on the cellular data side rather than WiFi. I guess it's only useful for when you have WiFi Calling enabled.

Hopefully the next iteration of this phone will have be compatibility. And hopefully Tmobile picks this phone up in more colors.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
I C. I dunno it appears to be disconnecting the WiFi cuz the icon for it disappears whenever I got or send an MMS text.

Yeah I agree. I like black but nice to have a white one maybe?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
T-Mobile Z3, Google Messenger, MMS, and VoLTE

I am curious about Google Messenger. The stock one works just fine now, but I'd prefer more options. Also, when Wi-Fi is on, it doesn't always automatically download MMS messages, even though I have that enabled in Settings. This is b/c Stamina Mode is on, and since I can't whitelist the stock app b/c it doesn't show up on the whitelist app list, I can't do anything about it. But GM would show up.

Let me ask everyone............. 1) Do you have T-Mobile? 2) Do you have VoLTE enabled or disabled? 3) Do you use the default APN or an alternate? 4) Do you have Stamina Mode on? And if so, did you whitelist GM?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Hi there,

So I just bought a brand new N6.

Did nothing to it, did not unklock the bootloader, di not flash anything.

Just ran it a first time, set my account, donwloaded the 5.1 OTA when proposed to and then it was over.

After the OTA installation my phone displayed a dead android and "Error".

When rebooting my phone, the apps are "optimizing" undefinitely and then the phone will restart.

I tried factory reset from recovery, that did nothing, I mean, the phone will still bootloop endlessly.

My bootloader is not unlocked so I cannot flash my phone..

Is there anything I can do ?

Thank you in advance
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
try fastboot formatting userdata and fastboot formatting cache
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Same story.

Black screen then reboot, then optimizing then reboot and so on...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
Well, since you haven't enabled OEM unlock, there's not much you can do besides RMA at this point.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
unfortunately, that might have been your only option. as you need to boot up first, to enable unlocking of your bootloader, to reflash the factory image. and you cant boot up :(
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
That's what I thought.

I thought I could use the fix described here http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/fix-fix-qhusbbulk-cm12-t3059518 but my device does not appear as "qhusb_bulk" like specified so I guess its over.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
id get the phone refurbished, from google or from motorola, since it wasnt anything that you did, but was the updates fault. btw, that happens, very rarely, but it does happen that updates can cause issues.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Well thank you anyway, looks like I have no other choice than send the device back.

One last question, since my phone won't stop rebooting endlessly is there any way to turn it off ? Long press on power does not do anythng, it will stil restart...

Edit: I found how to turn it off through bootloader.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
exactly. i was just gonna write how to do that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Sorry to come back on this thread.

So now I have noticed that when in fastboot, if I type "fastboot oem unlock" I'm getting the popup proposing to unlock bootloader.

As I never selected USB debugging nor enabled developper option when my phone was working, I doubt it would work properly.

Would I have any chance to recover my phone if choosing to unlock the bootloader ?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
If getting that it should unlock. Got nothing to lose and if does unlock it is recoverable.:cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yes! if you can unlock the bootloader, then you can flash the factory image via fastboot while youre in your bootloader. which would fix you not booting
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Wow.. So I tried.. and.. "Device is unlocked" is displayed... I guess I have a chance to flash something now.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
Your good to go. Just need to fastboot the stock images. :cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IINexusII:
just return it, if you find that you cant recover it after unlocking the bootloader then they wont take it back
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
grab a factory image, and read directions for flashing a factory image. you want to flash each individual file inside separately, instead of using the flash-all script.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
Yep, doing it right now.. flashing system currently.. crossing fingers;.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:

I love you xda ! really do love you.

Thanks a million.

(Although it's a bit strange that I was able to unlock bootloader without usb debbugging mode enabled no ?)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
This is very interesting indeed. To the OP, where did you purchase the device? I find it very peculiar that you were able to issue the OEM unlock command without using the toggle in settings.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:
I bought it from a small computers retailer in Paris.

Another solution is that, since I used NFC to load settings from zenfone 2 (which actually has the developper options and usb debuggin enabled) to my new Nexus 6 maybe these settings applied as well ?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yup. but at this point im being thankful instead of questioning. my guess is that the op bought the n6 used?

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

normally id say yes, but this setting to allow open oem unlock is new, and most likely not in the zenfone. but the previoys owner could have unlocked it. i unlock my bootloader as soon as i get a new nexus, and i never ever relock it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Precisely what I was thinking. But I'm with you, hoping this works and the device is recoverable. :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aanze:

Well, the bootloader of my N6 is unlocked as I see the lock logo when N6 boots up, what would that be for OEM unlocking option under "Developer options"? Would that function already switched to ON if bootloader has already unclocked?

If you're on 5.1.1, yes the option would be ticked to allow.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfung820:
Ok, my N6 is on 5.1.1 stock with root and un-encrypted but it allows me tick the option for oem unlock. Once I enable it, I was asked if I want to oem unlock it. Wasnt it supposed to be enabled if bootloader already unlocked?

Does anyone know anything about T-mobile's new wifi calling known as their "hotspot@home" that came out last week?

Here is the engadget article.

I am hoping that I can move the settings over to my Wizard...because they only offer it with two phones right now so I am hoping they release an update to the Wing with the settings so that I can put the program on my wizard. It sounds pretty cool with seamless transfer from a GSM tower to your own wifi network in your house. Plus it will save me minutes when my wife talks all day long in the house :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dwny:
NO

You need to use one of their wifi phones,

Not a wifi capable phone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] webgrafix:
It won't work! :(

The phone is not capable of calling via Wi-Fi, then switching to cellular. They are using a technology called UMA.

Tmobile currently has only two phones that support this.

Hopefully the gurus here can work out a hack!!! :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Hallis:
I was on a t-mobile retail store yesterday. Asked about it while i was in there. And to confirm what everybody else has said the representative said it will not work with the MDA. Or even the Wing. It seems like an interesting idea but im not too concerned about it. I've got a decent plan with plenty of minutes and i rarely use my phone when im home anyway.

I would be glad to help in any way that I can but I have very limited experience with programing...I have taught myself everything that I know and that is very little.
