Re: SailfishOS 2.0 on Nexus 5
 
Would be nice to be able to use CM12.1+Release, or just a standalone N5 full install of SfOS 2.0.0.10 and in the process getting rid of the "G00gl3" bootscreen finally.
Usually wait a few days before I up the OS to the latest, to see if there's any trouble during the early access preview time.

4g works fine for me.

I've been experimenting some more with this.

When I boot into CM12.1 I see H (presumably this means HSPA+) in the status bar, but when I boot back into SFOS I only get 3G.

I read that H+ covers 4G, so I think I'm getting 4G with CM12.1 but not with SFOS. Any ideas why?

Is anyone else using EE (UK)?

H means HSPA not HSPA+. H+ means HSPA+ and 4G is only LTE.

Usually mobile vendors show 3G (WCDMA) when idle, Voice or Data ongoing.
Sometimes when you use packet data they show 3G or if network has HSDPA or HSPA+ then they show big H (only when it uses HSPA. Othervice they will so also 3G with packet)

2G = Idle, Voice or packet in 2G GSM network
Sometimes E = 2G Edge packet data.

4G = LTE (only packet. When making voice call then 4G Switch to 3G or 2G is made)

So you have not got 4G with CM12.1 if you have not seen 4G.
Do you know if 4G is enabled in our EE UK subscription?

Thanks. 4G is definitely enabled on the plan (they advertise it as "superfast 4GEE"). I'll try the same SIM in the jPhone tomorrow and see if I get 4G, I couldn't try it earlier because the battery was dry.

What could be wrong.
1. Wrong APN settings (check correct from Settings->mobile data-> long press "internet" to get it open and verify that you use correct apn to get 4g.

2. Faulty HW - LG nexus 5 hw sukks azz.
My problems http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=125
And check this https://youtu.be/OPuCmfhzgbg?t=10m50s
4G antenna migth be loose. 2G and 3G use different antenna cable.

3. No 4G coverage in the test area...

Drat, tested the SIM in my jPhone and it works fine (good 4g signal).

APN settings are identical too, so that just leaves hardware faults :/

I do confirm I see 4G on my N5.

If anyone's wondering 4G works with the O2 network.

Could it be you've bought the US Nexus 5?

There's two versions.

North America:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
CDMA: Band Class: 0/1/10
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
LTE: Bands: 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41

Rest of World:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8
LTE: Bands: 1/3/5/7/8/20


In the UK (and Europe) we generally use 3/7/20 which is what the Jolla supports.
