Have you been experiencing problems with your HTC One M8's data connection? Has it been dropping in and out of connectivity or handoffs between 3G and 4G giving you fits? Well, I had a similar problem. I'm not possitive what caused the issue except it happened around the time I loaded the Google Play Edition ROM on the M8 and the data just started acting weird. Odd thing was that nobody else in the forums were having the same problem.

I reached out to well versed Android guys who know how to troubleshoot difficult issues. I still came up short. I was utterly confused about what the problem was. I even tried some methods of dialing certain numbers, but the HTC dialer wouldn't allow such numbers to be dialed. However, I was able to via an AOSP ROM. But still didn't work. I usually try to troubleshoot before reaching out to Verizon or any other customer service, well, because at times (a lot of the times) I know more about devices than even the reps themselves. But it got to the point where this problem was out of my hands and I came to the conclusion I have done everything I could, it didn't cause the problem and only a Verizon rep could help at this point. The last resort was to contact HTC and see what they could do.
