Hi

I have a Galaxy S4 on UK EE and find when I use the official youtube app to watch a video using my 4G connection I found it without failure that any video I watch it will always buffer

I use the imperium ROM and my phone is rooted.

Was wondering does anyone know what might be causing this issue anything I can do to fix this? Do other ee users have this issue?

Thanks
 
Hi I have a UK EE Galaxy S4 and find randomly that my phone will show no network and LTE connection is showing as not connected.

I do know thought that my phone is working and I am able to make or receive calls and receive texts etc so wondering why I am seeing this issue.

I am using the imperium ROM and my phone is rooted. I can confirm I saw this issue when I was on the original stock ROM which came with the phone. Could this be a possible phone issue? If I restart the phone that tends to resolve it as well.

Thanks

Do you not think that your problem above is directly connected to your other post, No network issue fixed after reboot? Namely, poor signal quality.

4G/LTE is for data and does not affect calls or texts.

Whether on stock Samsung firmware or a custom ROM, your modems, GSM & LTE, will remain the same unless you manually change them by flashing a new one via Odin. See, Latest modems in the (International) Galaxy S4 - All Things Root section of the forum.

The latest I9505XXUGNE8 modem is proving very good for a lot of UK/European users.
