Hello Guys. Nexus 5 has been here for a long time now but we are still eagerly waiting for some issues to be fixed by Google.
One of the major issues that people are facing is getting the phone in 3g mode.
Some users just can't select 3g in preferred network i.e. if they select 3g in preferred networks and press back button and again go to Mobile Networks menu, the preferred network would go back to 2g or LTE automatically.(I am not having such issue but my issue is mentioned below)
The bug I am facing on my Nexus 5 is that my phone can select the 3g preferred network and the settings do stick unlike the issue mentioned above but I get no service when the preferred network is 3g. There is no LTE in my country but 2g works fantastic! I tried my sim in my brother's Xperia P and he received full 4 bars in 3g mode! I tried his 3g enabled sim in my Nexus 5 and again no network when in 3g mode. This clearly shows that Nexus 5 is having something wrong. I don't know if this is hardware related or software but I want to get this thing fixed as soon as possible. I have even tried flashing stock firmware and selecting WCDMA only in the *#*#4636#*#* menu. Any suggestions?
Also, if anyone else is facing any 3g related problem, he/she may post here so that other users can help out! Peace :highfive:
