Samsung A71 5G Network Issues
So I bought a new samsung a71 5g from the tmobile store almost 2 weeks ago. Love the phone overall but the signal is getting me under 3mbps download and maybe 5mbps upload speeds in places by old pho...
From what I hear, there are some issues with some of the new 5G phones. Have you tried setting it in 4G/LTE preferred mode? Just to see what happens.
You are correct, the new phone was already updated and does the same thing. 5g gets .2mbps download and shows my location over 800 miles away from where I actually am. Switching to LTE is faster, but I bought the phone for 5g capability and they damn well better provide me a high quality phone that gives me that and can actually locate me as Clearwater, Florida instead of Charlotte, NC or New Orleans, LA or even as far away as Los Angeles, Ca. Anytime I go to a merchant website it sees me all over the place except where I am.
I have been a customer since they were Voicestream Wireless over 20 years now and never had a problem till I bought this POS phone that they would not take back. Very frustrating to say the least.
I'm sure that they do not want me to back bill them for the 100+ hours that I have spent with useless techs in the Phillipines. I do have one tech that I am waiting on talking to, she may have a solution.
