I'm speaking of the issue where the LTE data connection will stall and drop periodically and requires toggling airplane mode to correct itif you don't want to wait up to 30 seconds for it to correct itself.
It is obviously a nationwide issue, because no matter where I go on the internet, whether it's on this site, Reddit, howardforums, or anywhere else T Mobile is discussed, many people are having this problem everywhere in the country with all different kinds of devices.
I'm currently on MetroPCS network, my prior device was an LG motion. For the first year I owned that device, I never had any issues with LTE dropping. However, shortly after the merger I began to experience the dropping of the LTE. This caused me to switch to a GSM device much earlier than I had planned. I had originally intended to keep my motion until the CDMA network was shut off.
I purchased my LG f6 at the end of January, and to my dismay the problem persisted. Its been 5 months now on this device that I've been experiencing this problem daily.
The most frustrating thing about this is that fact that I have yet to see T-Mobile (or Metro, by extension) acknowledge that the problem even exists. Every report I see from other people relates tales of them being instructed to troubleshoot the device, pull the battery, pull and replace or swap the SIM card entirely. No one has reported that this solution worked, at least not permanently.
And before somebody chimes in with the inevitable, "Alll you have to do is toggle airplane mode and that will fix it temporarily", I will say that I am NOT looking for a quick fix, I am looking for a permanent solution to a problem that I've been experiencing for the past 9 months. I should not have to do that, especially multiple times a day.
Can anyone tell me if T Mobile is ever going to address this issue, let alone resolve it?
