Reception Issues - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys-
I have the Developer Version of the HTC One and I use the Viper ROM on it, I actually have been since I purchased my device.
I never paid attention to this but recently noticed that if I use the GSM / WCDMA / LTE auto, I get crappy reception - see image below.

}
But if I change my network mode to GSM / WCDMA auto, then I get nice reception but only HSPA speeds - again, see image below.
Both screenshots were taken in the same spot in my neighborhood. Does anyone have this issue? Should I flash a certain radio maybe?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks-
Dogan

It just means the 4G coverage in that area is bad whilst the 3G network is good.
Obviously when you select GSM / WCDMA your phone will not select 4G LTE hence no 4G Speeds either.

no internet at work

I arrived at work today all excited, thinking how much fun I will have now that I have my new 3g account. On the weekend I have almost no supervision and plenty of oportunity to get online. Every where else I have been I get full signal for gprs/gsm and umts, at work with 3(three) Australia I got 0 bars umts, if I switched to roaming I got 1 dot for gsm (telstra) that is not good enough to get a useful gprs connection. Disatster!!!! The only place I need mobile internet is the only place I can't get it. I will give it another 30 days and if no luck then goodbuy mobile broadband

I am wondering if telstra next g would have given me better reception? My vodaphone always had good gsm reception there but they do not have good 3g plans at the moment (and I am locked in a contract with 3 now).

No help?
Look at the title of this forum. Look at the model of your phone. Doesn't look like a match to me.
Also, you cannot change the radio bands that a phone supports. You bought a phone that is incompatible with your service needs.
Just received my Blu Advance 5.5 HD, the Blu Help does not work. What can I do?

Carrier aggregation on Band 40 and Band 7 is disabled

So in my testing side by side, Appears there is currently no band 7 or Band 40 aggregation at all.
Any time i land on B7 or B40 Primary band, i loose 4G+ / LTE-A
on my older device, i get 3-28-40/7 3CA (which is the limit for that device) so i know the network is configured for it.
Provider hasn't said too much on it yet, Speaking to Huawei directly i've been told Band 7 and Band 40 are new so there is an incompatibility with Android 9.
Anyone else had issues with this or other bands missing CA?
No problem with carrier aggregation on LTE Band 7 on Telekom Germany.

That's some nice download speed you got there. I wonder if you could go to the same spot where you got this speed, and download RX Monitor app from the play store on to your device and send a screenie of the main screen as that should show the frequency bands which 3uk is using when connected to the 5G network. I wanna know the band and bandwidth of the 5G band in use.
The App should show something like this on the main screen
There's a small Three mast just down the road from where I work and get similar speeds there, no nowhere else sadly and it had very limited range... I'd love to why it's in that location.
5G coverage on Three is garbage for me at least, but it works well, when available.

Question No 5G after network reset on phone

As the title states I have been with Cricket for around 3 months with great 5G service 4 and 5 bars. I was trying to get Wi-Fi calling working and I wasn't aware at the time that Wi-Fi calling isn't available on Cricket BYOD phones yet. I reset the network settings on the phone and now only receive 4G LTE. I've had excellent 5G signal up until the reset. Called Cricket customer service about it but I believe I'd learnt more talking to the wall, very useless support, told me after about an hour that it would pick up 5G again and thats been about a week ago. The settings I have circled in red doesnt allow me to turn on or off, is this normal?? also this is the APN settings im using, they are the only ones I can find on the net so I'm assuming they are correct. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for any help.
