One more FP4 with exactly the same issue as described above.
It started a few days ago. I thought it was connected to an update of the Android Auto of my new car, but I think that is weird. Issue: exclamation marks and offline mode although 5G symbol is there. No APN reset or going to 3G or 4G would work.
I just tried the workaround of disabling the eSIM and seems to be working normal with just the physical SIM card. Not ideal but okay for now. I also reported the issue to customer service with no reply yet.
Sounds like everyone here has a completely different problemāwith the same symptomsā¦
I for one have no problem with dual SIMs (and 5G). Everything works as expected.
Why am I telling you this? I think the only possible explanation is provider idiosyncrasies and interactions.
You should collate which provider combos do create problems, and which not. Maybe you will detect a pattern.
For myself:
eSIM: **Orange FR**, data on, 5G on
SIM: **Vodaphone DE**, data disabled, no 5G in plan
**No problems**
Iām having issues with my network connection as well. Made a post a fews ago but I just found this one.
I also have a dual SIM, and I lose network connection when Iām not connected to the WiFi. While having WiFi I can receive and make calls (with the āWiFi callsā setting OFF) but as soon as I turn the wifi off, no more signal and no more internet of course. I donāt see any difference using 5G or 4G or 3G/2G. The issue is still there. Sometimes I see some signal for 2seconds and itās gone again.
I contacted the costumer service and they are looking into it. But I donāt know how long it will takeā¦
I see this post started in Jan24. Did anyone get the connectivity issue properly fixed?
Wow that sounds disappointing and no so much in line with the values I would expect from this brand⦠I have been happy with the FP4 last 3 years but this kind of things might make me reconsider.
I may have found a preliminary solution: disabling the setting for the physical sim to automatically choose a network. Instead: simply choose the own network and thus the setting for Automatic is toggled off.
Downside: if youāre abroad it may not work as intended and within your country in case of very bad reception the home country roaming within other providersā networks is disabled.
Upside: it works so far well while commuting.
Note: not tested on high speed railway (200km/h) yet.
Perhaps someone else can confirm whether this works for others too?
Maybe I was then just lucky today or itās my provider combo. On a train itās usually worst so further testing for me needed.
Perhaps itās a combination of provider combos and settings. Interestingly it started exactly a year ago with that ages ago stated FP OS Update back then.
Meaning: either itās due to that OS Update, a Network update by the providers back then or both.
Both SIMs are on the default automatic network setting (of course also roaming, 5G, etc.).
The only thing Iāve changed is that only one SIM (the eSIM, which is my main one) uses mobile data. The physical one (private number) does not use data.
Just wanted to say: it didnāt work for me when I was trying it out yeseterday..
I am now back to my work-around (living in NL):
physical SIM (KPN) without restrictions;
eSIM (spusu AT in vodafone NL network) with 2G/3G, no mobile data, no roaming, automatic network selection [I only need this eSIM to receive phone calls and SMS]
