Battery drain when using the G4 in Europe - T-Mobile LG G4

Hi Everyone,
My brother has serious issues with his G4. He bought the phone two month ago from T Mobile store. and everything was working fine (the phone is unlocked). However, he traveled to Poland on Sunday and since he put Orange sim the phone went crazy. First of all, the battery is draining like hell because "cell standby" is on high percentages (was 72% on last screenshot he sent me). Secondly, he is getting text messages in Polish every 2-3 minutes saying that "the service is no longer available, thank you for your message" (that's the translation to English). besides that, the mobile data keeps turning off bu itself and the charging takes a long time than usual.
I went to T-Mobile and according to them, because it's a T mobile phone, it keeps searching for T mobile networks, that why it's draining the battery. They told me that a reset might help. It doesn't sound reasonable to me that a new phone that cost more than 600$ will have this issues. I have a feeling that all the T mobile crap apps that came with the phone are causing these problems. is there a way to disable some of them without a root?
Any help will be welcomed!

My first guess would be a bad SIM card according to the description you provided. Has he checked to see if T-Mobile variant cell frquencies match with Poland's Orange's? Perhaps it is looking for the LTE bands that doesn't exist on Poland. Or that SIM card is keep telling T-Mobile phone to look for the LTE band that isn't compatible with the device.
He could try to set to 4G only or Some other settings.
If all fails I would try to take back the SIM card and replace with the new one.

Also checking APN settings could help and making sure the right once are selected under mobile networks.

[Working]Sprint HTC One With OMH SIM(RUIM) !!

I am able to get my Sprint HTC One to accept my RUIM(CDMA-SIM) of one of CDMA network provider in my country, by making Sprint HTC One to read from RUIM only. Calls, Text & Data is working. The only issue is that it is continuously staying in 'Digital Roaming' or 'Roaming', although I've not been charged any roaming charges by my (RUIM)network provider, all the calls, text are being charged normally with absolutely no roaming charges. And another interesting thing is that if I stop roaming by going into Settings-->Mobile Data-->Roaming & selecting 'Home Only', the phone completely stops receiving signal. I don't know why it still needs that Roaming part to be active even though it is not truly in roaming & I was only charged as per normal rates by my (RUIM) Networ provider & again absolutely no roaming charges. And there is no issue with GSM but with CDMA mode you get that 'Digital Roaming'. I hope some one experienced shed some light on this & suggest a solution for this only issue, which although doesn't stop me(us) using RUIM based CDMA Network in my(our) country(ies).
Please take a look at the attached screenshots which prove that data is also working.

Phone repaired, now can't connect to 3g

Hey guys,
So i broke my Xperia Z (C6603) screen 2 weeks ago and just got it back from my insurance company a few days ago.
They somehow unlocked my unlockable bootloader and also sim unlocked the phone. I was not disappointed with this
But, i can't connect to any 3G networks since getting my phone. And since my provider only supplies 3G and not 2G, i'm screwed.
I've factory reset, flashed various stock roms, 244, 423 and also flashed CM10.1 and CM10.2. No luck! I figured one would have a baseband that worked properly?
Everything else works fine, wifi, calls, nfc etc. But when i go into *#*#4636#*#* and try to set the preferred network type, i can't select LTE etc, it just defaults back to WCDMA. Also i have no option for LTE in the mobile settings network type (i did previously). Only WCDMA only, GSM only or WCDMA (preferred)/GSM. The last one should work, but still can't connect to 3G networks. Every time i try, it tells me "could not connect to the selected network, check your sim, blah blah". But it connects to the 2G variant of that network just fine.
My APN settings are fine, as i copied them from my HTC One on the same network. And the imei isn't blocked according to my provider.
I have tried another sim and this sim in another phone, so there is nothing wrong with my sim cards. And i doubt there's anything wrong with the sim card slot, since 2G wouldn't even work then. I'm on Three UK and have phoned them for help, but they were useless and fobbed me off to my insurance company.
Any ideas? I'm pretty much out of them
The fact that they unlocked a locked bootloader and SIM unlocked the phone sounds a bit dodgy to me.
You could try downloading the APN settings, go to Settings>Xperia>Internet settings.

How do you find your signal? Obviously having no 2G network is, in some cases, a disadvantage.
I only ask as on my HTC One S my signal was fine all the time, now with my Z I find my signal patchy and it takes a while to find any.
Oh and I wonder, does your My3 app work? Mines not working anymore, it always thinks I'm on wifi so won't open any payment pages.

My signal on the Z was always great when it worked. On my HTC One it's not so good. The three app won't work on my Z, since i obviously have no data connection at the minute. But i never had any issues with it.

This is probably because T-mob covers only particular places the frequencies this phone uses http://theunlockr.com/2013/07/05/htc-one-sprint-specs/ vs t-mob https://t-mobile.jive-mobile.com/#jive-document?content=/api/core/v2/documents/4988

Is there any solution for this problem ?
Is there anything I can do to fix this problem ? (different rom or radio...etc..) Or I have to give up the phone... Cause it is too much headache to "searching for network" all the time and miss all the call with no service on the phone without knowing..

well, I am not an expert on the tmobiles network, but going by what lazybozz, said, I seem to remember tmobile using different bands than the other carriers, so what you may be experiencing, is the phone being in the vicinity of multiple towers, but not all of them are within the band that the phone supports. So its like the phone doesnt even see those towers. On a side note, this issue caused alot of chaos for those who unlocked iphones about 3 years ago, they could use EDGE on tmobiles network but not 3G, so i assume this is a similar situation. So long story short, yeah you probably cant fix the problem, unless you get a quad band phone. I could be wrong, but it does sound like a logical reason for the issue you are having.
as elvisypi said above, Its the freq that T-mobile operates on in that area. If your getting T-mobile at all in the states then you have already flashed a radio. However flashing any other radio is not going to give you the freq that tmobile uses, Its not a software limitation its a physical hardware limitation.
Thanks for your reply, do you know any app out there that monitor and alarm you when the network or signal is lost ? That works with 4.3 ?That way at least you know the phone is offline ... some of the apps I tried is anything at all ...
Thanks
Have you tried an app like tasker? Its essentially an automation app. It isnt jist for your use. Its for many different functions. Jist look on the app store for tasker. That might help

[Q] Straight Tall APN issue with SM-910T

So I recently got a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4. As we know, it's unlocked 100% without any special root methods or entering in codes into the dial pad. With that being said, I popped in an LTE Straight Talk SIM card, transferred my old number to the new SIM and configured the APN and for a long while it was working fine with no issues. Then out of the blue, I had no data. It absolutely quit without warning. I go to check the APN settings I had previously and they were gone. I had redone everything and saved the settings. However, when I go back out a menu, no Straight Talk APN. I did the same thing again....and once again no APN settings. Just the default T-Mobile LTE APN.
So I'm at a loss. It was working fine previously and now I cannot set APN settings. I have reset the phone more than once (reluctantly). Any thoughts? Any help would be appreciated since I'm paying those bastards $45 and some change a month for service I cannot get. Also as a note, I can receive and send text messages with no problem. Calling number results in "you are not registered on a network," but I know the fix for that.

Sounds like your phone got black listed. Did you buy it from Tmobile? If you bought it from some one else it was either a stolen phone or the previous own stopped paying for it.

I had bought the phone from a local gas station owner (who had 2 other T-Mobile phones with him). It was working while he showed me the phone (he had gotten several text message and Facebook updates). He then reset it. I bought a Straight Talk SIM kit and went to work. I had working data until the next day. I had played around with some more internal settings, like updating the touch sensitivity and more. Everything was working until I refreshed the Wi-Fi antennae. Don't think that would have anything to do with the 4G/LTE radios or regular antennas. Overall, it was working, so I don't see how it could just magically stop.

If he bought the phone on a lease from T-MOBILE and never fully paid it off T-Mobile would black list it. Or if he sold you a lost\stolen phone.
You can contact T-Mobile or check the IMEI on one of those checker sights to see if it has been blacklisted.
Sent from my SHIELD Tablet using XDA Free mobile app
You can check to see if you're blacklisted by visiting the T-Mobile website and using their IMEI checker. If you're blacklisted you would not be able to place calls. I will attach sample AT&T APN that works for me. I'm on Cricket and not StraightTalk but it may work for you.
For all who helped out on this post, THANK YOU! I figured what my issue was. SIM card is fine and the data settings work as long I don't configure the MCC & MNC settings. Changing the MNC from 260 to 410 is what caused my saved APN to disappear. Not sure why that happens, but if any of you have an idea of why, direct me to the thread that explains this or if you know, quote this reply. And another thing, I am able to send texts and make calls, but due to the location I was in, texts sent at half the speed of smell and making a call was impossible due the phone claiming I was "not on a registered network" even though ST is a network (duh). I have no service issues on my Note 3 N900A when I that. Anyone think it could be because AT&T's device antennas differ from that of a T-Mobile Note 4? Personally, I don't think they would since they are both GSM and operate on the same bands (I would think), even though the Note 4 has "newer" technology. Not really worried about data, texts or calls since I have Wi-Fi in said location.
Again, thanks to those that helped me out. And, again, if anyone has any ideas to the information said above, by all means give your say or direct me to where there is substantial info.

SM-N950W : Mobile Data not working.

Hello,
My note 8 cannot connect to mobile data. Whenever I activate it, nothing happens I don't get any mobile data signal what so ever. I also checked the APN's configuration with my Mobile carrier and they were unable to solve it.
It should be noted that my note 8 has a stock Canadian firmware and I am using in Morocco with a Moroccan sim card

did you check with your morocco sim does include data from your plan? Also which carrier are you using in Moroccan? it could be either your plan doesn't include data plan or the carrier doesn't have the UMT/LTE band for your note 8

Yes, I still have around 1gig of data available and My plan includes data.
My service provider is INWI and they do have LTE band since The same sim card worked on my previous J5 2016 normally.
I forgot to mention that, After activating mobile data and roaming, I checked the sim status in the setting where I found that Mobile network state is DISCONNECTED and Roaming is not running.

Can you test if you can make call or text? if so, i will suggest double check the apn. I checked your carrier in Morocco , you should be able to get HSPA data connection in Canadian Version Note 8(N950W) unless you select (LTE ONLY).

I can confirm that I can make phone calls and send texts without a problem.
I checked all options and none worked .
As for the apn, the configuration message was sent to me by my service provider itself.
I performed a factory reset that didn't help too.
Since you can make the call, I don't think it is something wrong with the phone. I checked there's only 1 hspa band and none for lte available for note 8 from your carrier. I guess either double check with the carrier for the apn or maybe the phone just can't pick the b1 hspa signal from your location.

I won't mind HSPA since there's not much difference between LTE and HSPA in Morocco. I doubled checked with my carrier today and they told me that I have to wait for 48H for them to look into the issue.
The weird thing is when I used an app called LTE Discovery I found that I do have a signal for LTE band 3 yet I have no internet.
It is mostly the service provider's fault, I think.

They might be similar to AT &T where they need to recognize the device IMEI number before allowing full data access onto their Network.

First thing I'd do is research and see if it's true what your service provider told you. It might not be. Second use another sim from another network in your device. Third borrow someone else's IMWI sim and use it in the note 8. Also check APN again.
Did the phone receive 4G or LTE prior to coming to Morocco with the same device?
I also don't fully understand on your earlier post about the phone status not being roaming. It shouldn't be roaming status if using a local sim card.

I still haven't tried another INWI nor another Moroccan sim card.
I have no idea whether or not it received 4G Before coming to Morocco since I won the phone from a Dbrand's giveaway. I think it's brand new.
Shouldn't roaming be active when you activate it in menu ?
I turned on mobile data roaming and nothing happens. Check the picture for details.
I turned off my Data Roaming and the Mobile network state remained the same - connected. I'd think " Mobile network state " has anything to do with roaming being on or off unless one is roaming out of their Network onto another network.

I turn them on and off yet their status remain disconnected. I understand why.
I really don't understand how to get mobile data working on my phone.
Hopefully someone else will try and assist.
In the meantime
On the phone dialer enter *#0011# and *#2263#
Also, the mobile network state will be disconnected if you are connected to WiFi.
Should get the following screen.
Also make sure that the correct APN is entered and active / selected.
Then try and go to the connections menu and toggle lte/3g/2g... to 2 or 3 g and back to to 4g to see what happens.
Also make sure Mobile Data is turned ON.
Go-to settings then search for Mobile Data.

That's weird as when I checked Frequency check website with device sm-n950W and your service provider INWI , it lists it as fully compatible. The other Moroccan networks were not though.
This would be the second instant whereby Frequency check has got it wrong. First being Samsung device I used to own.

I checked the frequency myself and I came to the same conclusion.
I was only told today by an INWI agent that devices from Canada and USA always face the same issue.
I triend orange which didn't work too. Gladly, IAM worked as it is the largest and oldest network in Morocco.
From now on, I won't believe what websites say till I see for myself.
