    I'm on T-Mobile and had full signal on Wi-Fi and LTE anywhere on my property and in my house on my Note 3. I got my OPO today and I cannot get anything above 2 bars signal strength on T-Mobile and about 75% on Wi-Fi even sitting 6 feet from my router. Very concerned that this is a major issue. Fix is needed ASAP!

    All in all, there are no perfect phones. 5S is too small. S5 is too slow with TouchWiz and all. Nexus 5 eats the entire battery in half a day. OnePlus has connectivity problems.

    I haven't even been able to connect to t mobile 4g late once. Also on both mine and my wife's phone or WiFi is terrible. In the few times we get signal the speed drops to 1mb or less on our 50mb connection. Every other device/phone works fine on it.

    Looking at Jira-cyanogenmod-org it looks like there has been a blocker placed on the latest OTA. So the roll out may have stopped until it is fixed.

    i'm also concerned about the connectivity. I got my opo a week ago and use it with tmobile. I almost never get full bars on my opo. with my s5 i had full bars almost everywhere. usually im at zero or one bar. however, i'm yet to experience a dropped call...
    moreover, very often my signal bars jump from 0 to full and then to 0. it all happens when i'm not moving or changing placement of the phone. it desnt happen only in one particular location. it happen all the time.... in different places

    also today, i noticed on my way to work that.... i had full bars during my drive to work (35 minutes). it did not drop even once ! however, at the same time my data indicator never went up to LTE. it showed either E or H+ . that last thing also makes me confused .... I had to reboot my phone and it went to normal behavior which is ...zero or or one+ LTE indicator!

    (running most current 4.4.4 with significant battery loss)

    The cost of switching phones can be expensive; no wonder people buy into the insurance plans and dunk their phones that they dont want in water....heck if they made a commercial for it...then its obviously happening lol. Waste of electronics :I

    The phone definitely seems to have a problem holding a strong signal. I personally haven't really noticed any data speed annoyances but the phone rarely gets more than 2 bars. Even when I'm outside, I only get like 3 bars most of the time. My previous phone (Huawei Ascend Mate2) would have like 4 or 5 bars INSIDE my house and always had full bars outside. Haven't noticed any problems with Wi-Fi though.

    I just cant believe more people are not chiming into this thread.

    Is it possible we all have defective phones? I would hate think so, but I guess it is possible.
