Samsung Galaxy S4 & 4G Disconnects

[Anonymous]

When I recently visited the West Midlands I managed to connect to the 4G network. It worked fine, the speed at which I was able to browse the internet was a vast improvement on 3G. I was quite impressed at first.

A number of times throughout the day the connection would drop, however I'd lose full connectivity, data & voice. Everytime I had to reboot my phone which was frustrating :manfrustrated:. Ultimately, I had to amend my phone settings to exclude 4G.

Has anybody come across this issue and is there a solution?

Cheers

I suspect there may have been some underlying network fault in the area you are in.
My phone flicks between 3g/4g without any issues.
You could try resetting your network settings next time but I would hope it was just a glitch.

I've never had the problem, seamless connections between 3G and 4G so possibly an issue with masts

Perhaps you went through some so called not spots where there is no coverage. I know the West Midlands well and there are many.

I live in the Midlands and yes I have experienced it a lot recently. 4G in Birmingham by the airport...travel towards home and it is flicking back to 3G frequently (and at one point dropped all network connection for about a minute).

In Coventry at the weekend and had 4G....till I went to another suburb 2 miles away and back to 3G

It was a new experience for me as I have only had a 4g sim since January and haven't travelled much in the UK since then...
