My Nexus 6 won't pick up LTE again after being on WiFi for an extended period of time. I've tried numerous troubleshooting ideas. I do have Voice where I can make calls, just won't pick up LTE.

Putting my phone on "LTE Only" doesn't work. But putting it on "CDMA Only" does give me 2G data.

I've ran out of ideas and this is quite annoying. Anyone have this problem and/or possible fix?


I'm on Straight Talk (Verizon) with a Google Nexus 6 running Euphoria ROM with the 11.05.16R radio.



ETA: I am aware of this thread from Google:

But I'm not sure this is exactly the same problem.

listing what "troubleshooting ideas" you have tried might be a good idea.
otherwise, some noob like me, will suggest toggling airplane or rebooting. :p

Yes, I've done the basic toggling of WiFi, Airplane Mode, data on/off. Checked APN settings (although not sure what they're supposed to all be set to). Used an app to put it in LTE Only, CDMA Only. Toggled Global/LTE.

Restarted the phone many times. Sim in/out. Bootloader/QCOM (whatever that is). Done all the basic stuff I can think of.

only other thing, not likely to work, clear cache in twrp and reflash the modem.
then there is the messy stuff lol,
- wipe data
- reflash rom
and if that doesnt work,
- get a new sim

Unfortunately, clearing cache and flashing a different radio didn't work either. More than likely a problem on their end. Guess I'm stuck with 2G until Friday. :(

Thanks for the help tho. :)

very unlikely the problem is on their end, unless this is a common thing with your provider.
let us know how you work it out, or if it fixes itself.

I am having the exact same issue. It is driving me crazy.
edit: for what its worth - I just tried to disable "Data Roaming" - there is a chance that just fixed it.

I also have this problem, toggling airplane mode usually solves it, annoying though. Have tried both LP & MM radios. Currently on slim 5.1 w/ verizon, but I've had the problem on other custom roms. Haven't tried stock.


I'll give the data roaming thing a try, thanks.
