Looks like I have wound up with LTE connectivity issues on my 2nd M8. It's defaulting back to 3G and never trying LTE again. I'm in an area where the circuit fallback has already been installed and is up and running, so it shouldn't be that. It randomly just stopped working properly over the weekend. Sprint has told me there are no issues in my area, no work being done.
Is there any chance HTC or Sprint acknowledge this issue with their phones? What is happening under the hood to cause the phone to randomly get mucked up and never be able to get back to normal? Or is there a way to get back to normal?
Profile, PRL updates, rebooting, airplane mode are all (very) temporary fixes for a bigger problem. It acts and feels like a software issue, but is it something that can be reversed or does it get embedded into the firmware, never to be removed? I've tried flashing firmware multiple times without rebooting, over top of itself more than once, hoping to knock out or overwrite something wrong inside. I ran OMJ's h/k RUU last night and it connected to LTE as soon as it rebooted, but today it's right back to where it was.
