Samsung S5 strange behaviour

[boxerulez]

I read an article on iphone lte that did this too. It has to switch from lte back to gsm or something like that before the call comes through... like a call limbo or something.

Is your number ported by any chance. If im not mistaken the change in ringtone means it's switching from one to another network.

Nope, and the minute LTE is off, its fine.

On LTE voice becomes like voip. It is difficult to get the voice out of LTE.

None of our networks support voice calls over LTE yet. The phones network switches back to the 3G/2G network when making and receiving calls, that's why there is a delay and it still sounds like we are talking using two cans and a string.

LTE routers and modems are fantastic to use, but I don't see the need for a LTE phone right now.

Battery drain is faster on LTE phones & besides, Telkom Mobile's HSPA+ enabled towers all give me more than 12Mbps download speed, so no buffering when watching YouTube HD videos, and everything is fast.

*Samsung doesn't put FM RDS radios into their LTE phones, which is a major annoyance for me.
